Tooth Fairy

Our Granddaughter's tooth was loose.
She was kinda desperate to get it out.
Finally, with Pop Pop's help...
Success!
Even though she was visiting us in the mountains over Spring Break, the Tooth Fairy managed to find her.  (Amanda says the Tooth Fairy has a special GPS system for tracking teeth...)

This Lucky Gal got $2 under her pillow! Her Daddy told her that he only got 50 cents back when he lost his front teeth. But, I reminded him that due to the cost of living and inflation, the price for teeth had gone up.

P.S. Amanda actually pulled her own tooth. She and Pop Pop just wanted to kid around with the big pliers.

    Please tell her congratulations for me. Is this the first one she has lost?
    Those pliers made me a little nervous. I was thinking that Amanda must be a brave little girl.

    How is Jack doing?

    Amanda looks very cute with her missing tooth smile. The photo with the pliers is a keeper too.

    Hi Barb, I was glad to read at the end that the pliers weren't actually used. She is such a cutie.
    Also I have to comment on the beautiful tulip in your previous post. And thanks for your comments about my dogs.

    Oh, am I glad to hear those huge pliers weren't really needed after all! My eyes popped when I saw them and I thought..."Oh, No! This had to have an unhappy ending!"

    Clever girl to have done the job herself...and glad to know toothfairies have kept up with modern times...GPS tracking and inflationary measures...I only used to get a tickey!

    At first I thought it was a joke. Is that a good way to get a tooth out, or just a photo op? Either way, all's well that ends well.
