First Tooth layout.
Photo is printed on Bazzill white cardstock. I love this look - it looks like a painting on canvas.

Journaling is microsoft word New Courier font on tan cardstock. Each tag is mounted on Rusty Pickle Blue Gingham and inked with Steel Gray Zig marker.

Journaling reads:
I don’t know why, but I wasn’t prepared for your first loose tooth. We were walking out of the Scrapbook store and you bit into an Oreo. You said, “Ow! My mouth hurts!” I looked inside your mouth and I saw your bottom front baby teeth were loose and the adult set were peaking out from behind.
Again, I don’t know why, but I started to tear up. I looked at you and in that second, I saw the 6 month old baby girl who just got her first tooth! And here you were, 5 years later, ready to lose it! You know your mother’s nature very well and knew I would start to cry. You quickly said, “Don’t cry. I’m OK now.”

Almost two weeks went by and then you had to get the cover off the Edy’s Pumpkin flavored ice cream. You were at the kitchen table, and I was only a few steps away loading the dishwasher. I told you I’d help in a minute. But it was pumpkin ice cream and you needed it right away! So you tried to open it with your teeth! All of a sudden, off came the lid and out came the tooth – right into the ice cream! As I turned to see you, I also saw lots of blood.

I held you tight and again you assured me you were all right and to stop crying! We put your tooth in the tooth box you and Sarah had made the week before and the Tooth Fairy came that night. She brought you a silver dollar and 4 quarters.

You brought them into school for show and tell the next day. Then during P2 time, you were wiggling the other loose tooth and out it came in your hand! Your teacher and friends all told you congratulations and you were the star of the day!

Again the tooth fairy visited; two nights in a row. And she brought you a two dollar bill with Thomas Jefferson’s picture on it! You were excited since you had visited Monticello, his home, this summer.

You gave me this big toothless grin as you told me how you lost your second tooth in school. You are growing up so fast and I am so proud of how confident, happy and loving you are. I love you so much!

Love,
Mommy
