Ode to a tooth fairy




Mimi lost her first tooth.
we were expecting it, in fact, we were hoping it would happen in Disney World. Our thought process was that Tinkerbell would be the fairy in that case.


The tooth came out by Mimi's own hand. She is one tough tootsie.

The event began with her eating an apple to speed the tooth removal process. When she saw blood on the apple, she took a tissue and reached in and pulled that tooth right out herself.
She then sped it to a tiny espresso cup of water where she carried it for proper adoration throughout the house and surrounding territories.


She also decided to keep her tooth so she set about to write the tooth fairy a letter asking for it to be left behind.

As she prepared for bed, she decided to sleep with JieJie in Jiej's room and put the tooth under her pillow as proof of her loss. This tooth is so damn tiny, I had to place it in a sandwich bag to protect it.

She then decided to sleep fully clothed, so that the tooth fairy didn't see her normal nigh time garb of underpants.

There was a bit of stress about the logistics of the tooth fairy being in your room and reaching under your pillow while you sleep.

Suffice it to say, neither Mimi, nor Jie Jie slept well.

Mimi has another tooth that is loose, she is already plotting its removal.
