Paige lost a tooth

I love how Paige is daring and tough.  A couple

of weeks ago she noticed her tooth was wiggly. 

She was surprised because her sister did not loose one 

this young.  Well we decided it was time to pull it

because it could not get any more loose with her

permanent tooth right behind it already growing in. 

Paige got the floss and I tied a knot around it and

she was ready for me to pull it out.  The only problem

was I was not ready. I remember pulling Riley's

and it took us about two hours because Riley

was too scared and I was sick to my stomach

having to pull someone's tooth out. Yuck!

But Paige was brave and said, "go for it mom!"

I asked her what I should count to and she said,

"10!"  I started counting and as I got closer

to ten I was feeling nervous.  I was suppose to 

be the brave one and my 6 year old daughter

was showing me up.  I just don't like inflicting pain

on people! Well I got to 8 and pulled it out.  

Well that surprised her because she was waiting for

me to count to 10. But I could tell she was getting

a little nervous. The tooth came flying out and first

she gave a shocked look and then a nervous laugh

and then this cute smile. 

The next morning she woke up to a note and money

from the tooth fairy.
