Little toothless grins!

Don't you love toothless grins?  I do and Grace has had one since the end of October.  In fact, when she wrote her letter to Santa, she did ask for her two front teeth!  It was a struggle to get the little teeth out, but she was brave and let me do it.  The teeth were so loose, you could almost twist them all the way around.  

Here's the difference in kid's though that I find interesting.  And I say interesting because I am an only child and the whole sibling dynamic thing amazes me.  With Katey, my oldest, she pulled almost all of her own teeth out by herself.  She wouldn't let me or Jerry do it at all.  It had to be all her.  I guess she could handle the pain better.  Sam on the other hand has never had loose teeth.  Serious as a heart attack!  His teeth will not lose the roots and they stay in, making the permanent teeth come in over, behind and in front of the baby teeth.  We have always said he has "shark teeth".  But thank heavens Grace has been keeping the Tooth Fairy busy.  Until now!  But that's okay.  If she doesn't lose any more that means she is still my little girl for a little while longer.
