The Tooth Fairy Came!

Sorry the picture is sideways! So, when we got home from my mom's house after Elizabeth lost her tooth she immediately wanted to write the tooth fairy a note. On one side she drew a picture and on the other side Tom dictated for her. It's kind of long but I think it's funny so I wanted to write it out for you.
Dear Tooth Fairy
I love you. I'm sorry I don't have a tooth for you to get . Hey tooth fairy. My name is Elizabeth. Why do you always come at night time? We don't know where you are. Dear tooth fairy. Did you know that I lost a tooth? I'm 4 years old and 4 year olds are supposed to lose a tooth. My dentist's name is Victoria. Victoria is a mom. Her kids are Zachary and Amelia Lauren.
Love, Elizabeth
Elizabeth is a very literal child. When she was thinking about the tooth fairy coming she decided she didn't want this strange flying thing to come in her bedroom so she asked if we could put the letter in the hallway. After Elizabeth went to bed she must have been laying there worrying about it because she called me in and told me she didn't want to tooth fairy to come at all. I told her that was fine, but she was pretty excited to find out she really did come today!
Just rolled out of bed! She found that the tooth fairy left her a pack of gum (a very special treat) and 4 quarters. She felt very lucky.
Ben is showing the glitter that the tooth fairy left behind. It was a fun way to wake up this morning!

how cute! I love the letter to the tooth fairy! She is just too precious. She looked very happy to have a special visitor, maybe that will make it easier for her to lose another tooth!

You're such a good mom. I don't know that I'll have your patience - I'm just to blunt and honest. (and no, I'm not pregnant, I just mean someday)

That is a funny note. It is important that the tooth fairy know that she is under the care of a dentist. It is also a pertinent that this dentist is a mom and therefore protective so the fairy shouldn't even think about any funny business! Hilarious. Love it...

So funny! It's kind of going to work out nicely for the tooth fairy not having to go into her room while she's sleeping and sneak the money in and the tooth out.

How cute! Natalie is the same way. She doesn't ever want to put her tooth under her pillow! We have to put it on the ladder that leads to her bunk bed!! Congratulations to Elizabeth!!

I LOVE that letter! You should definitely scrapbook it! She will want to read it when she gets older! Funny she didn't mention that this dentist is her aunt! So cute!
