A Visit from the Tooth Fairy

On Sunday Quin was laying on the couch and said "Mom, my tooth hurts."
I replied, "Go tell your dad to look at it"
Bryce checked out his mouth and pronounced that he had a loose tooth.  I was surprised! He just turned 5.  However, the family dentist assured us that it was a normal time to get loose teeth.  Whew!

Well, Quin spent the next few hours wiggling that tooth and then at dinner was frustrated because he couldn't eat without his tooth hurting.  So, to my utter shock, he asked his dad to pull it out.  Bryce, being somewhat of a teeth pulling expert, was able to yank that snaggle-tooth right out.

That night Quin got a visit from the tooth-fairy and spent the next day either telling people to look at his smile or sitting and admiring the dollar he was given.

The tooth-fairy cash was spent on a Darth Vader Action figure.  Yes, we have introduced Quin to Star Wars.  And yes his mind has been blown.

Having a 5 year old is exciting stuff!
