Jake got off the bus today and said that his tooth fell out at school. I was all excited for him - I knew it was loose but hadn't realized how loose - then the sad face came. He literally LOST his tooth. He and his good buddies, Jack and Emily, were 'wrestling' while they were waiting to get back into school after recess and somewhere in the goofing around his tooth was knocked out. He is very unclear exactly what happened, doesn't know who hit it or with what, but he does know that he was giggling so much that the tooth fell out of his mouth. Well, it hasn't been seen since. He was very sad because now he doesn't have anything for the Tooth Fairy - no concern about the tooth, just the Tooth Fairy.
His teacher, Ms. Frank, assured him he could just leave a note for her and she'd understand. Jake was still upset about it so I told him we'd run to school and have a look (knowing we probably wouldn't find it!). No luck. After the tooth search, we stopped at Aunt Pam's to see Amelia's new pink cast and she told us that the Tooth Fairy has special powers and knows where to find lost teeth. So...we wrote a note and all is well. Except the part that we had to add on to the bottom of the note, Jake wants the Tooth Fairy to tell him if she found the tooth yet. Hmmmm..... what happens if by chance the tooth shows up? I know, it isn't likely. Those baby teeth are tiny but one never knows!
