"Um momma may i talk to you"
"Honey I'm on the phone"
"Ok but............look" He pulls out his lip, and shows me his teeth.
I look for a moment, and realize he's lost another tooth
"That one fell out too?" i ask a little worried
"Yeah it was poking me in the mouth last night and i took it out and put it out on my table so i could give it to you to put it in your hand then i forgot and now i can't find it"
"Ok, it's on the table in your room?" i ask gently
"Uh-huh"
I smile and scruff his hair......looking in his mouth i smile. He's gonna break the tooth fairy at this rate.
How time fly’s. One moment we call everyone we know and declare "He has his first tooth / teeth!" And now, already, he's lost those very first two and we are still in awe at how amazing these little precious hearts are in our lives. Sentimental as those are the really the last little parts of them that came when they were just babies. Alas, lets be excited that this is also a special time growing up. You are doing a fabulous job with your boys. Good job Mom! (To Eric - Good job!)
