First Visit from the Tooth Fairy

We had a BIG day at home yesterday. Luka lost his first tooth. They have been loose for a long time now and he has anxiously been waiting for this "right of passage." He has been so excited...every day he shows me that it is loose and asks me to wiggle it. 

Well, yesterday when we least expected it the tooth just flew out of his mouth. He was coming out of the bath and while drying his face it just popped out. He was JOYOUS!!!!

His exact words were, "This is so special. I am SUPER excited." My heart just melted. He is one of the few kids in his class to loose a tooth and when we spoke to his older cousin later that night Luka was very proud when he learned he lost his 1st tooth before Maxwell. Big deal for our little Lukkie!

Of course we wrote a letter to the tooth fairy and guess what he asked for...MONEY. Well this morning we found 1,000 CLP under his pillow in an envelope with a note that reminded him to brush and floss. $2 USD isn't that bad! Maybe the Tooth Fairy was a little stingy, but he is only 5.

The other teeth are about to come out...I foresee more Tooth Fairy visits in the near future!

Congratulations Luka!
