The Whole Tooth And Nothing But The Tooth

Some days I come up with clever titles for my posts, and then some days I come up with ones like the one above. Let me take a moment to extend my apologies.
Now on with the post.

So, today was preschool for Holland and though I work the morning shift of an exclusive carpool, (ok, only 2 of us moms wanted to be in it, but I like the way "exclusive" flowed in the sentence.) I wanted to pick her up this afternoon myself. So, when I get there, her teachers tell me she lost a tooth. This would be her first tooth which is still one of those great milestones we get real excited over. She was so proud and happy. I have to say teeth are a lot more pleasant coming out than coming in.

The tooth is somewhere in that cute little hand. And wouldn't you know it, this week she's studying the letter "T". Is she dedicated to her education or what?

The new tooth is already coming in. It is just behind where the baby tooth came out. Better go ahead and start the orthodontist fund now.

Though rising fuel costs and a potential economic recession weigh heavy on her mind, she is hopeful for a good return from the tooth fairy on her investment.

Sweet Dreams!
