Hunter finally lost his front tooth today. It has been hanging on by a thread, as they say, for a couple of weeks. He would try at different times to try and pull it out but he just couldn’t bring himself to do it. Tonight it happened when he hit his mouth just by accident and out it popped. We were all at the table, reading scriptures I think, so we were able to share in his excitement.
Immediately, I was wondering how we would handle the tooth fairy here and still let his parents be a part of this. I feel like I was instantly inspired with the answer. I told Hunter that he needed to write a really nice note to ask the tooth fairy if he could keep his tooth to show his mom. We went on with our activities and I figured we could take care of the note as he went to bed. We did out usual routine and as I walked into his room to tuck him in, I found that he had written the note and had it all set up on the table by his bed! It was so sweet and cute that I had to take a picture.
