Around here, Brooklyn is a rockstar. Everyone loves Brooklyn. At any given time, there is a line of siblings waiting for a turn to hold her. Each of them takes great pride in their special relationship with her, and their ability to make her laugh and squeal. It is so sweet to watch their relationships grow.
Right now, Brooklyn is especially high on my list of favorite little people. You see, Destany had this tooth that was driving me crazy. You know the kind. The one hanging crooked, right smack in the middle of her smile, just begging to be pulled. But Destany was not interested in having it pulled. I begged for the privilege, but she was not to be swayed. And stories of tying a string around it and slamming a door to yank it did not help any. (Nice try, honey.)
To my great delight, Brooklyn took care of that tooth tonight. Destany was playing with her when she suddenly shouted out that Brooklyn had knocked her tooth out. And sure enough....as she explained what had happened, that stubborn little tooth fell out of her mouth and onto the carpet in front of her. Wooohooo! That's my baby.
Now let's just hope the 'Tooth Fairy' remembers to follow up on this tooth! A few nights ago Destany received $1.25 and an apology note from said fairy. That tooth had been under her pillow for a couple nights, so she accrued a little interest!

I can't believe how "toothless" our girls are!!! :)
It's crazy, huh? Destany talks funny today. That window is so big that her tongue doesn't know what to do with it! LOL
Hello Kiara,
The tooth fairy taking a few extra days to get there sounds familiar. We discovered that our house seemed to have the same problem, just like some other families we knew. Occasionally the tooth fairy couldn't make it for a few days because they fly so high in the sky and there is often more moisture in the clouds that high up. Then the fairy wings get damp. They can't fly very fast with damp wings because they are carrying all that extra water weight. ;) I thought the scientific explanation might help. Glad to hear the tooth is finally out! Tootles, Sandy
That definitely helps, Sandy! We don't do Santa Clause, so we really capitalize on the fun of the Tooth Fairy. The kids think we're crazy, but it's fun. :)
