Zack lost his first tooth on Sunday. It has been so loose for a while but he just wouldn't pull it out or let anyone else do it. He said that he needed corn on the cob to get it out. So the store finally had decent corn so I bought some, but that didn't do the trick. Finally he just let me wiggle it and pull it. He could tell that it was going to come out so he did it and got it yanked out. He was very proud.

That night when I put the boys to bed, Zack was just a crying. I asked him what was wrong and he said "I love my teeth!! I don't want the tooth fairy to take it!! Why does she take our teeth? I just want a dollar" Howl, Howl. I tried to get him calmed down, but he was so sad. So he finally asked me if I could write a note to the Tooth Fairy telling he to leave his tooth. This is what he asked me to write "Dear Tooth Fairy, I really love my tooth and would like to keep it. And I really want a dollar. Thank you Love, Zack"
It was so cute. He stuck the note and his tooth under his pillow and finally went to sleep. In the morning, I heard a howl out of him and him saying she took his tooth. Then he laughed and said "She did see my note. Here is my tooth. And a dollar!!" He came up the stairs very happy!!

What a great video, Holl. Congratulations to Zacky. What a big step to take in his life. He does have a very cute face. I love little Cam's antics in the back of the video. What a character. Wow, a whole dollar! I think we used to get a quarter.
