April 23 - Natalie's LOOSE tooth!

Natalie's very LOOSE TOOTH was so loose that she asked me to pull it out! I told her, "No, IT's YOUR TOOTH!".....and that she should bite in to something like an APPLE. So she said, "OK, I'll do it!" Here she is and she couldn't get her teeth thru the apple b/c her two bottom teeth were so loose. I couldn't believe how brave she was to bit in to the apple. She REALLY wanted this tooth out so she could be a Big Girl!


There it is - bloody from trying to bite in to the apple and hanging on for dear life!
