Samantha loses her first tooth!

Samantha has been sick with strep throat. She has been watching a lot of movies. I mean A LOT! On the first day home from school, while watching some Barbie show, she suddenly announced "I just lost my tooth." She had been working on it for a long time and had finally gotten it out. Then the second day home from school she was getting frustrated as she had some trouble getting the second loose tooth out. When Nathan came home from work she asked him to look at it, something that usually makes us both queasy, but he grabbed onto her tooth with a kleenex and pulled it right out. Samantha was happy because she said it was easier to eat with the teeth out than with them so wiggly. She has decided she would rather keep her teeth for a while than turn them in to the tooth fairy. That's a first for us! Usually the kids are so excited to get money!
