Tooth Fairy time

When we adopted Kristina last year, she was already missing a tooth. The dentist here said it had been knocked out as opposed to coming out naturally. Poor Kristina doesn't have the best balance, so it's not too surprising that she knocked a tooth out. Two days ago Kristina showed me one of her front teeth that was - to my surprise - very loose! With a few wiggles on my part, out it came. I don't know if Kristina would understand the Tooth Fairy just yet...but she'll learn quickly, I am sure!

Clumsiness must be something that comes with adoption. My girls, the first few months, were always falling, bumping into things and burning themselves. It has gotten better but still not where I would expect it to be. And I'll suspect there would be more adoptive moms that will tell you the same thing.

Our son lost a tooth 3 weeks after being home (I think). He was familiar with Tinkerbell, so we explained the tooth fairy compairing her to Tinkerbell. It seemed to work for him.

Here I bought a cuddly panda bag (L) that I can hardly put it down!
I believe it is a GREAT find for every panda fanatic!
