This puppy had been hanging on by a thread for a few days. Daddy had been persistently wiggling/tugging at it as she would allow, but he lost a little bit of trust the day he introduced the pliers (which didn't get it out by the way, because she wouldn't let him near her). So, when she came to me after brushing her teeth that evening to try and wiggle it out, I gave it a good push and when it started bleeding, grabbed a paper towel and told her to pull. Out it popped!!

| Her brothers were nearly asleep, but we busted in, turned on the light and had to share the exciting news. |
The Tooth Fairy came and left four quarters. She must have had an early start on the night because when Sophia woke up at 11pm to check her box, the money was there already! She bee-lined for my room where I was getting ready for bed. I've never seen her so excited.
We had taped a box closed with the tooth inside so she didn't loose it. Sophia marveled how the tape was still on as she picked it open, pausing every few seconds to rattle the box.
The next day, we went to Target to the Dollar Spot to spend her fortune! A Hello Kitty coloring book. Ahhhhh. Isn't life great when you're 6?
