My son lost his first tooth last night. Yay! He's so excited! It's just in time too for school picture day today. Unfortunately it's a bottom front tooth, and I don't think you'll be able to see it like you would've if it had been a top tooth - but I'm not going to spoil his fun by saying that!
THANK YOU SO MUCH - to whomever left the comment about putting the teeth in envelopes. That was a great idea! I'd forgotten how tiny the teeth are! We folded the tooth in a tissue and sealed it in an envelope with his name and the date on the front. Perfect! It made it so easy for the Tooth Fairy to sneak in later & slide the envelope out from under the pillow.
P.S. for anyone's future reference, always keep at least one $1 bill around if your child has a loose tooth. Otherwise the Tooth Fairy could be stuck leaving a $5 bill under the pillow because it's all she had! Mama & Daddy had to explain that since this was his first tooth and a special occasion, the Tooth Fairy left more than she normally would...
Oh - and P.P.S. He'd secretly been wishing she'd leave a Star Wars light saber instead of cash... I told him, no way - ain't gonna happen. She's cash only!

my mom used to leave dollar coins or fifty cent pieces, something really cool and special you couldn't just pick up from anywhere.
