Claim the prize

When Sam told me his tooth hurt last weekend, I thought he just needed some dental floss. On closer inspection, it was all wiggly-waggly. We had to quickly explain the tooth fairy (a pretend person) and the process (put your tooth in a special place, and she'll bring you a prize).

We got a lovely little tooth pillow from Niki, and two days later out it came. We had tried to pull it out the night before, but when Sam went to school on Monday he "just stuck my finger in there and pulled it right out!"

The tooth went in the pillow - it has a special pouch - and the tooth fairy brought him a transformer. He was so excited he woke up in the middle of the night to see what she brought.
