Yea for Kaytlin!

Well the tooth has finally come out! After months and months of wiggling, the thing came out this morning. She was laying in bed and smiling at me. That thing was practically sticking straight out like it was going to attack me. I asked her to push on it and nothing happened so I pushed on it and it made the ripping sound. I have horrible memories of my mother ripping my teeth out and I didn't want to do that to her so I made her pull it out the rest of the way. So she did except that it was dangling by one last piece. She had a little blood on her fingers and didn't want to put them back in her mouth so she told me to take it out the rest of the way. I have never seen a little girl so happy and terrifed at the same time. Talk about building suspence, it's been loose since September. And she's almost seven and this is the first loose tooth. Everyone else has already lost several teeth. I'm so happy for her and I can't wait to see the excitement tonight with putting it under her pillow and and in the morning after the tooth fairy comes. Man I LOVE being a mom!
