First Tooth Lost


My little shy 6 year old lost his first tooth last night. It was fairly loose but not hanging by a thread when he asked me to come pull it out after his shower. I told him I could but it might hurt because it was still gripping on pretty good. He said to go ahead and yank it. After it was all over and the blood was rinsed from the cavity the tooth left in his gums, he said, "I don't think I like loosing teeth." But this morning he was pretty happy to find a dollar under his pillow. I asked him if anyone at school today thought the tooth around his neck was from the space in his mouth...he just rolled his eyes at me and said, "Nooooooo. Everyone knows I have LITTLE teeth." (By the way, it's a buffalo tooth around his neck)
