Joshua's tooth saga...

Well, tonight while I was getting dinner ready for everyone, Joshua was standing in the kitchen and all of a sudden, he said, "Mommy, I just lost my tooth". I responded appropriately, "I hope that the Tooth Fairy comes tonight." He was distraught. He said that the tooth flew out of his hand. So, we searched fruitlessly on the kitchen floor for it (it's no surprise that we couldn't find it; I haven't cleaned the floor in a week in anticipation of the Cleaning Woman coming on Friday!) So, I told him that he can write a note to her explaining his predicament. He thought that was a great idea and went hurriedly away to write. "I can't find my tooth- I lost it"... He is so funny! We placed the note instead of the tooth inside the envelope. I sure hope that she will still show up even though there is nothing for her to take away, only money to give away! And, it's his fourth tooth and we just started this tradition of giving him the number of teeth he has lost in dollars, so tonight is a $4 debt!
