fairy dust

When he told me he had a loose tooth I was sure he was making it up.
No way he is growing as fast as his hair.

But yeah, it was loose - and then was brushed out by Dad (just like Lia's first tooth).

And so we got ready for the tooth fairy -
we put the tooth inside the backpocket of a tooth pillow.
It's not as giant as in this pic - that would be a hell of a tooth.

But we make pretty, right sized teeth ...

... to sleep on ...

... and are rewarded in the morning with a right sized polar bear in our bed.

 

 

And the polar bear was duly appreciated by Ben. So glad he's not THAT big a boy.
