Tessa has been waiting for years to lose a tooth, and this week it was finally her turn! She had a tooth get wiggly a couple of weeks ago and she was so excited about it. She told everyone she saw and even texted her bff, Camdyn in Michigan to tell her. We were starting to wonder if Tessa was going to be like her Daddy and have her baby teeth pulled because she is 7 and hasn't lost any. The Dentist even did a special x-ray at her last appointment to make sure she had adult teeth under her baby teeth. A brief moment of panic for Mom. Who knew that was even a possibility to not have adult teeth?
But, thankfully he said her adult teeth were all there. Just taking their sweet time to pop out.
Tessa has been wiggling her loose tooth diligently for a couple of weeks now and she came home from school with her smile looking a bit different than when she left for school that morning. She was so happy to have her tooth fall out. And at school! She was in math class when it happened and she got to go to the office to get a special bag for her tooth. She put the little bag in her backpack, but then carried all of her books around the rest of the day because she didn't want to put them in her bag and smash her tooth. She was very worried about taking good care of it for the Tooth Fairy.
Before bed, Tessa wrote a special note to the Tooth Fairy, telling her the whole story of how and where the tooth fell out and where Tessa had left it for the Tooth Fairy to find. She put the note on her bed so the Tooth Fairy would be sure to see it. Tessa was so happy to wake up the next morning to find her note and tooth gone and a dollar under her pillow.
She is proudly showing off her new smile and can't wait for more of those baby teeth to fall out. She is feeling so grown up!
