TOOTHLESS

It was a quiet afternoon at our house last Sunday. I was taking care of a few things down stairs and actually was trying to nap when Ashlynne came barrelling down the stairs.
Ashlynne: Nana, Nana, the Tooth Fairy gets to visit me!
Nana: Why do you day that?
Ashlynne: Because I lost my tooth at Grandma Cindy's.
Nana: Wow, I didn't even know you had a loose tooth.
Ashlynne: I didn't know either. So now what to I do.

I proceeded to get out an envelope and put her tooth in it, address it to the tooth fairy and seal it so the teeny, tiny little tooth wouldn't fall out.
I also told her that in order for the Tooth Fairy to visit, she would have to put the envelope underneath her pillow when she went to bed.

The next morning, she was crying--
Ash: The Tooth Fairy didn't visit me, Nana!
Nana: Why?
Ash: I don't know!
In walks mom with an explanation from the Tooth Fairy.
Mom: Ash, the Tooth Fairy came to my room last night and said she couldn't find your tooth. Where was it?
Ash: I held it in my hand all night long! (she rubbed it so much that the envelope was nearly worn away for the tooth to fall out)
Mom: The Tooth Fairy said she would come back tonight if you put it under your pillow--because magic is in the pillow and that it is the only way that the Tooth Fairy can pick it up!
Ash: Okay, mommy!
The entire time this conversation is going, Ashlynne's eyes are as big as saucers and can't believe that mommy had a conversation with the Tooth Fairy!

All was well the next morning. The Tooth Fairy made her obligated visit---and will be visiting again soon! The tooth right next to it is lose and as it was in June with Austin's teeth it is the same for Ashlynne, too---right down to the same teeth!
