tooth fairy :)

today was a first for the shermans 5 !!!! noah has FINALLY lost a tooth :)

my little man's teeth have been in there pretty darn solid! everyone in his class started to lose teeth in kindergarten but noah's teeth just weren't ready i guess ;) finally we noticed that he had a loose tooth a couple of weeks back and that his permanent tooth was starting to come in. he has been working on that little bugger.

today in music class ( ha! ) his little buddy told him to just "rip it out real fast!" and that's just what he did! and it didn't even hurt, he reports! his teacher hooked him up with a pretty cool little necklace to put his tooth in! :)

noah decided that he would just put his tooth in the little case and leave it on the dresser! in his words ... "i think it gives me the creeps having it under my pillow, mom!" LOL ;)

so he did just that and what do you know?!?! that tooth fairy found his tooth!! :) i think she might have left a little extra cash being that this is his very first tooth! ;)

When the Tooth Fairy heard you lost a tooth,
do you know what she did?
She made a map to visit you
'cause you're a special kid!

First she got your home address
and checked her fairy map.
Then she flew to your place
where she saw your brand new "gap"

Of course, she took your worn-out tooth,
just like she's always done,
But, she's left you something nice instead
to help you have some fun!
