#3


Camden lost another tooth last week.  They are slowly, but surely, coming out.
  

We put it in an envelope and left it under her pillow that night.  In the morning, I got up, fixed a bowl of cereal and sat down to watch the news over breakfast.  Camden groggily said, "Moooommm, turn off the TV."  I reminded her that this is what I do every morning and the TV was staying on.  "No, Mom, please turn it off."  After my second reminder that she can fall back asleep even when it's on, she said, "But that's not why.  The Tooth Fairy hasn't come yet."  OH NO!  Something had to be done...

I turned off the TV and finished my cereal in the other room (WINK).  I came back about 10 minutes later to wake her so she could get ready and we talked about how unusual it was for the Tooth Fairy to not get the tooth.  Maybe there was a note.  She checked her bedroom, she checked the kitchen, she checked the front door.  After a check of the dining room table, she found this.


We laughed and laughed at the silly Tooth Fairy not planning very well and running out of money.  Sure enough she came the next night and even left an extra 50 cents for the trouble.
