Emmanuel Loses A Tooth

Emmanuel lost his first tooth a few days ago on the bottom. He was very scared by this fact and didn't realize this is what is suppose to happen. Then we talked about the whole tooth fairy thing. She did indeed come and brought a dollar. "I have to put this in my piggy bank right now." But he does want to know why a new tooth hasn't appeared yet. We have tried to explain it will take a while.

Emmanuel is having his long awaited eye surgery on Friday. Usually when I tell him he is going to the doctor his first reaction is, "Am I going to get a shot?" This time when I told him they were going to make both his eyes look alike he simply said, "ok." I said are you nervous? "No." I said are you excited to see better. "Yes, that will be good."

NOTE FROM SCOTT: One small detail omitted above: Emmanuel lost his tooth because - get this - he was chewing on a hammer!!

By 8:30 last night, EVERY child was scared to go to bed because they were terrified of the tooth fairy creeping into their room while they were sleeping!!

An hour and a half later, I walked into their room and A & E were asleep in E-Man's bed with the blanket pulled up over their heads. And Annie had sneaked away to HER bed. I asked Abegail this morning if the tooth fairy came. She said...
