My 5 year old daughter just lost her first tooth. I wanted to share with someone so I figured why not you all.... |

Be advised - tooth fairy rates have escalated drastically over the last few years. Coins of any denomination (exception: Krugerands or others with gold content) are passe. 1$ bills are also looked upon w/disdain by most 5 - 6 year olds. You may need to do some quick research to find the going rate in your area. Contact local Tooth Fairy Union to schedule midnight visit. Congrats! Tooth-impaired kid photos allowed! - put her on your bike with a big gappy smile and shoot away. AL |

Also do not forget potential black male photos, they should mature in about 12 years...and can be used to re-coop tooth fairy expenses. |

In Adobe special features, I'd do you a link but it crashes my puter if I open Adobe while online, dunno why. |

The Tooth Ferry at my house uses those gold-colored dollar coins that came out a few years ago. |

The tooth fairy at my house used to work on an exchange basis. Tooth Fairy got an itty bitty kid tooth, said kid got a big honkin' shark tooth or animal fang of some sort. All the other kids at school the next day thought our tooth fairy was way cooler than their tooth fairy. |

AHHHH don't tell me these things!! My five year old informed my wife and I a couple of weeks ago that she had a loose tooth. We thought, no way, much to early. Crap, just when it looked like the daycare bill would go down, now I have to pay dues to the local tooth fairy union. Plus, the dentist says start saving for braces! gbr

Earlier this month, mine lost her first tooth and less than a week later, her second. In total, it cost me $6 and a trip to Baskin Robbins. But it was a very small price to pay... |

I hope it wasn't a traumatic experience like I had. As soon as I showed my mother my first loose tooth, she was hovering over me with some tweezers and yanked it out by the root. That damn quarter I got in 1967 wasn't enough. It was the last time I ever showed my parents a loose tooth - a hard lesson to learn so early. To this day, they think I still have all my baby teeth. |

It cracks me up...my wife told me, "Everyone has a HORRIBLE memory of having their tooth pulled by their Dad..." I guess because I kept asking my Daughter if she wanted me to pull it out for her? Her reaction would always make me laugh...I guess I am a little twisted |

My step-daughter gets her braces off in a couple of weeks .. we are planning a party for her with all the food that she has not been able to eat for the past 3 years ... my step-son has had about 5 teeth pulled and still has some serious horse teeth in his mouth and will need braces in a few years .. my daughter is coming up quickly on her 3rd birthday .. and my wife and I are hoping that she will not need braces too ... |
