The Knock Out

Our little girl has lost her 1st tooth.
It has been a much anticipated event in our house hold. She couldn't wait to loose a tooth.
Everyone in her class has lost one, all of her friends have lost one, her cousins, yep they've lost one.
She would sit & wiggle & wiggle & wiggle.
Well, the day finally came, but not at all how we anticipated, it was not pretty.
I was inside working & the kids were outside playing last Friday the 4th.
I heard Alexee SCREAMING, now Braiden, he's a screamer, over anything, but Alexee barely even cries when she is hurt, so I knew something was very wrong.
We met in the middle of the yard & she was bleeding out of her mouth, BAD.

The Knock Out....
It involved her, a friend, a slide & a pipe.
Obviously the pipe should not have been involved, it flew back & busted her lip, knocking out her tooth.
Poor little girl though because before it fell out it went through her lip, like poked through the back & made a hole out the front.
She was in so much pain. She was freakin out about the tooth being lost in the sand box. She was so worried the tooth fairy wouldn't come.
I was trying to make her excited about losing her 1st tooth, cheering & dancing & telling her she finally gets to put her name on the missing tooth board at school, but she was like "Mom, stop, this isn't how it was supposed to happen."
So, we sat down & wrote the tooth fairy a note & asked her to please still come, I wrote as she told me what to write, my favorite part is at the end she said,
"Can you please give me some money?"

Love that little girl.
Here's the evidence.....
