The life of the seventh child is a wonderful thing. The events that passed the other children by just seem to take on a whole new life with the baby. Caelum, at the fresh age of five, has lost his first tooth. I knew there was going to be a little trouble when I was explaining what he should do with his tooth, and the twins were sitting nearby rolling there eyes. It seems that we let the twins down so many time during their "loosing tooth" stage that they no longer believe in anything, especially the tooth fairy. We would forget so many times and recreate so many new rules involving the little fairy that we lost track of the exact procedure! So, when we simply told Caelum to put the tooth under his pillow and money would arrive, Ian and Avery snorted! Lo, and behold, look what happened...
Poor middle children...they are the reason that there are so many therapists in the world.

Hello! I have to be so careful who reads this one! Regan still believes, although, I'm not sure how. We are also notorious for forgetting and making up stories. The tooth fairy can't find teeth unless it's under a pillow! And even then, she's a very ditzy fairy.
ok, yes, i have a couple of comments. first, our tooth fairly over here was always extremely busy with "other" children, rendering service to them in such a loving and busy way, that my children just had to wait...and elyse's song made me cry. whenever she opens her mouth to sing my heart is filled with emotion. Simply amazing. And what's up with that anonymous bozo? get a life.
to anonymous-no one cares about your psycho rants.
