Lost it her way

For Ella's first lost tooth her big sister pulled it out.  This time Ella wanted it to just fall out with no help from anyone.  I think it had been ready to go for about a month and last week the big girl tooth was coming in behind so we needed to take action.  She still said no.  I was going to wait until the weekend and take matters into my own hands... didn't have to.   On Thursday Ella and I were at home while Elizabeth was at gymnastics and it fell out.

So Ella got her wish... she happened to be holding something in her mouth that probably helped the process along but it came out with no pain.

On the way to get Elizabeth from gymnastics Ella wrote a note to the tooth fairy.

Dear Tooth Fairy

Today I lost 1 tooth

It was wigglier

than the other tooth

I hope you have

a good night

Love

Ella

PPS can you give to me a picture of you?

Elizabeth added messages to the note too

ppps can you help my sister lose her teeth too

pppps can you give my sister some money?

The tooth fairy only gave Ella the money and did not leave a picture of themselves.  Ella was pretty bummed to not have a picture.  The tooth fairy thought that might be problematic - at least that was what I assumed.
