The Tooth Fairy

The Tooth Fairy paid her first visit to this household last night.
daughter had been complaining about two wobbly teeth for the past week and she pulled the first one out (left lower incisor) yesterday morning with much excitement.
I asked her if she could whistle like Lotta from the Charlie and Lola episode "My Wobbly Tooth Must Not Ever Fall Out", and sure enough, a faint whistling sound could be heard when she spoke.
After a day spent admiring her tooth, the tooth was placed in a ring box and placed *beside* her pillow (who on earth puts them *under the pillow???) and she eventually fell asleep. She was very impressed this morning to find a gold coin in place of her tooth. As it turns out, our 5.28 year old daughter didn't believe that a fairy would come, rather that Mum and Dad would just pretend .... so luckily she now has a gold coin as evidence a fairy did visit.

...and then, just as she was eating breakfast, her right lower incisor was so wibbly-wobbly, she had to pull it out in order to eat breakfast. She safely tucked the tooth into the jewelry box this morning before leaving for Kindy to show her teachers her "pirate teeth". She's hoping for another gold coin tonight.

Notable quotes of the day from our son (3.28 years) who was a little jealous of his sister getting all the attention:

son: "*I* can whistle too ... (says) ...woo-hoo"

son: "Dad - come and put your bottom in this - it's so comfortable" . This wasn't in relation to the tooth ... rather I had moved a chair in from another room for husband to sit on in the lounge room and was hoping he'd like it so I could move the blinking sofa against the wall and out of the way.
