Lost

While at church Sunday, Reagan hit another milestone ~ she lost her 1st tooth! She was eating a Rice Krispie treat and it just fell out. Literally. Onto the floor. She was hysterical, not wanting to loose any of her teeth because "the ones she has are just fine". the tooth was lost, never to be found. We thought it may have gotten thrown into the trash in the wrapper, so Greg gets the trash bag out to go through it. There must have been 20 or 30 people (some of whom I didn't even know) on their hands and knees looking for a little girl's 1st lost tooth. It really was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Reagan was devastated that she lost a tooth and wanted to hear nothing of the Tooth Fairy or getting a new big girl tooth. Finally after what seemed like 20 minutes a sweet man, who I don't even know his name, found Reagan's tooth.

The missing tooth
Look how small this tooth is!
Reagan didn't want her picture taken of her new smile. She would cover her mouth when she spoke and wants no mention of the "event" that occurred at Jesus' house. She even asked us to put a sign on the front door telling the Tooth Fairy not to stop at her house. I finally convinced (well, bribed) her to let me take one picture. Daddy made a special trip to the store for Jello Pudding Pops for his little girl's big day!
I think the new smile is just as beautiful as the old one!
