Jack-o-Lantern in the making

Jack made it all the way through Kindergarten without losing a tooth. Yes, he was disappointed as the other children were losing their teeth and earning rewards for it. We reminded him that his teeth would eventually fall out and not to be discouraged. So after months of wiggling the same tooth (he started wiggling it in August of 2009), the tooth finally came out on July 9, 2010. With the amount of time we had to prepare, you would have thought we'd be ready for this to happen.

As he anticipated, the Tooth Fairy came through the night and left him with a letter, $10 in cash and a Kit-Kat. He was quite happy with the loot and looked forward to the next pulled tooth. His uncle Joe said he should be a Jack-O-Lantern for Halloween. Chances are they'll be grown in next year.
