The Tooth Fairy

I'm going to have to go backward for a few blogs just to get everything in that I want to share. B lost his first tooth on Easter Sunday while wrestling around with a friend. One of the bottom teeth in the front had been loose for a while, but not wanting to come out. TWO permanent teeth were already coming through directly behind the baby teeth! Of course, I'm freaking out thinking that my kid will have a deformed mouth and his future will riddled with major orthodontia work due to these stubborn baby teeth. The dentist assured me that this was perfectly normal and nothing to be concerned about...unless the stubborness persists through to his 7th birthday. Anyway, check out his not-so-toothless grin.
The tooth fairy visited that night and left a dollar for the tooth which is now stashed in the bottom of my jewelry box. Not sure if the tooth fairy's identity will remain secret...he questioned whether she exists the very next day. My reply was, "If you believe in her, then that makes her real." Santa's days are numbered...
