Ellaree's Tooth

Ellaree informed us on Saturday that she had a lose tooth.  She has been saying this since she went to the dentist in early December.  The hygienist said that it was starting to be loose but it would be some time before it came out.  So I didn't pay much attention to it.  Then she showed me how wiggly it was and it was quite wiggly.  Then it started bleeding when she would play with it.  She worked on it all through church service and didn't eat much at lunch since it hurt too much.  Then she was watching a movie and all of a sudden I hear a very excited "MOMMY" and I new!  She is super excited and is expecting a dollar from the tooth fairy tonight!  What high expectations she has.  haha  Here are some special pictures we captured on Sunday.

And the tiny tooth!

Ellaree decorated an envelope for her tooth to be put in so that the tooth fairy could find the tooth

The backside of the envelope

And a letter to the tooth fairy...I have this hid in her baby book for later.  It is just too cute to throw away.  Here is the translation...

 

Tooth Fairy I like you forever thank you for taking care of my lose tooth love ellaree
