Words Of Wisdom From Beth...

...If you have a super-loose tooth, and the little girl next door suggests that you put one end of your jump-rope into your mouth and bite down really hard, while she takes the other end and runs as fast as she can in the opposite direction, you might want to think really carefully about the consequences before agreeing to try it.

Unfortunately, I listened to my pal. The end result was lots of blood, quite a bit of pain, and (worst of all) a tooth that flew into the air and got lost somewhere in our back yard. Daddy spent about 20 minutes crawling around on the grass with me in a desperate search to locate my tooth, but in the end we agreed that it was a lost cause. So, we wrote a letter to the tooth fairy explaining our dilemma, and she actually still came!

I think we'll throw that jump rope away, though. It's a bit...messy.

Ethan wanted to tell Beth that even though he let Dadddy tie a piece of dental floss to his very loose tooth and told him he could pull it out, that he got too scared at the last minute, and is still waiting for it to fall out on its own.

Ceci popped her first tooth out by herself without even a whimper (to our surprise), the second took her Godfather's dentist tools to pry it free. Let Beth know that each tooth is different, so the next one is sure to be a piece of cake!
