NO MORE SCHOOL, NO MORE TOOTH

Yes, just after his last (1/2) day of school, Eric twisted his loose tooth right off. The boys had come to have lunch with me at the water steps, our usual spot. Eric kept messing with it and it had been bothering him for about a day. I told Eric if he could twist it, that if he keeps going it would come right out and that's just what he did. He asked if there was a big space in his mouth...and Jesse followed with the same question showing off his pearly whites. Eric wrote a note to the tooth fairy asking to keep his tooth and get money. She did just that and he got a $5 bill out of the deal! You don't often get rewarded for losing but this was one of those rare occasions!
