A week ago, when JM got in the car from school he was so excited to show me his very first loose tooth. That moment made me want to cry. Losing teeth seems like such a big kid thing to do... I mean, shouldn't he still be my baby waiting to GET these teeth? Time goes entirely too fast, I tell you!
Today he got in the car with plastic tooth around his neck. He jumped in and yelled "MOM! My tooth fell out today during brain break!"
Part of me is sad that I didn't actually get to be there when the tooth came out. Part of me is relieved... the thought of pulling a tooth kind of grosses me out... in fact, taking the tooth out of the necklace was enough contact with a tooth for me.
I think we'll leave the tooth pulling for daddy... I was never a fan of getting my own teeth pulled anyway!

Yes, it's such a tear-jerker when our babies do the "big kid" things. That's a precious toothless smile from JM. Have you told him about the tooth fairy?
