Anthony's Tooth

Anthony lost his first tooth on Christmas Day!

I hate the tooth fairy. It's one of my worst parenting issues. Not because I'm morally opposed to money for teeth or anything. It's because it seems like every time one of our kids loses a tooth, I forget to stay up late and get the money under their pillow. Then I have to use some sort of trickery in the morning to get the money there.  Anthony came to me the next morning almost in tears because he couldn't find the tooth he put under his pillow and there wasn't any money. Don't worry - after a slight of hand - he found four quarters hidden in his bed! Thank goodness the tooth got lost during the night or I'd have even more explaining to do!
