And the Tooth Fairy's dress was red!
It was funny b/c she brushed her teeth and said "mom - look at my tooth" and it was basically just sitting there with no gums around it. I told her just to grab it and pull and it would come out. She tired and didn't get it, but when she opened her mouth it was gone. We had to search for it and Alexa found it behind the toilet. The other tooth is coming in already.
After looking the tooth over, Alexa got a little nervous b/c it had a little dark spot on it from plaque. She said that it must have been under the gums, b/c she brushes her teeth. I said most likely and not to worry.
That morning on the way to Grandma Adams' house she wanted to talk about it again. She asked if maybe she could leave a note to the tooth fairy explaining it was under the gum, where her tooth brush didn't reach. I said if she wanted to write a note, then go right ahead and we would leave it next to her tooth.
I thought by the time I got off of work and dance class was over that she would have forgotten about the whole Note to the Fairy thing, but she didn't. As soon as we got home from walking Rollie, she ran to her room and wrote a long note. It explained about the little dark spot (and I mean little) and told the tooth fairy that she hoped she still got full price for the tooth.
The next morning, she woke up to find her water had turned red (which indicates the color of the Fairy's dress) and the Fairy had left the full price of her tooth. 3 whole dollars.
