I was running late this morning so I tossed a whole apple into her lunch bag instead of cutting it up. Little did I know that she had a loose tooth. 10 minutes before school is letting out I get a call from her teacher saying that Sdyney just lost her tooth biting into an apple and that she was extremely distraught. Mrs. L was concerned about putting her on the bus while she was so upset. I told her I would come grab her right away!
I got to the school and Mrs. L was holding her. She had calmed down and was no longer crying. As soon as she saw me, I told her how excited I was and that the tooth fairy would be so excited to come and visit. Several other teachers made a huge fuss over the lost tooth and Sydney finally decided that she should join in on the celebration. Needless to say, she hasn't stopped talking about it since!
I feel so bad that we didn't know it was loose. Otherwise we would have made a big fuss over the whole thing. I am a little surprised that she reacted so strongly. She is usually my go with the flow kinda girl. We read Fancy Nancy and the Too Loose Tooth book all the time too, so she was certainly aware! We talked to her only briefly about her getting to be the age that she would start losing teeth. She wasn't amused, so we dropped the subject. Little did we know...
A few (ok a lot) of photos to celebrate the milestone!
