the Fitzner Family

Jayna lost her first tooth while we were setting up our Christmas tree. She went to her room for a couple minutes and then ran back in the room with her little tooth in her hand and said "Daddy, I lost a tooth!" I was so surprised! I knew she had a tooth that was a little loose, but I didn't think it was even close to falling out, and she just barely turned 5. I almost didn't believe her at first, except there was blood on her mouth and hand.

She was excited for a couple of minutes, and then she started crying, and she said "I'm not old enough to lose a tooth yet!" Haha, I think she was kind of surprised, and a little unsure about the blood too. But after a few tears, she was back to being excited and has been happily showing off her lost tooth to everyone we see.

When we asked her how it fell out she told us that she felt like there was something stuck in her teeth, and so she was trying to get it out, but then pulled her tooth out! Haha, I wish I could have seen her face! I think she must have been pulling pretty hard.

She thought she was going to get a "shiny new dime" from the tooth fairy, I don't know where she heard that. But the tooth fairy was feeling generous that night and she got a loonie instead.

There is no turning back now, this little girl is officially growing up way too fast.
