A Visit from the Tooth Fairy

Meredith lost her first tooth yesterday!  Interestingly, she lost it while she was eating her chicken nuggets at dinner.  She never said a word and Creig didn't even notice it missing.  After they got home from church last night we were talking and she smiled.  That's when I saw the hole where one of her little baby tooth used to be.  I was so excited for her, but she quickly began to cry. 
She was afraid that the Tooth Fairy wouldn't come to see her because she didn't have a tooth to put under her pillow.  She wasn't sure, but she thought she probably swallowed her tooth when she was eating her chicken nuggets.  Daddy reassured her that the Tooth Fairy would come, and after some quick work on Mommy and Daddy's part, Daddy received a text message from the Tooth Fairy. 
The message said:
                Hi!  It's the Tooth Fairy.  Please tell Meredith that I found her tooth.
                Tell her she will have a surprise under her pillow in the morning!

Meredith was so excited, I was afraid we wouldn't be able to get her to go to sleep!



When we got up this morning, the first thing she did was check under her pillow.  Here is what she found...



She was so excited, and couldn't wait to open it. 



She couldn't believe everything the Tooth Fairy left for her.  She said, "Wow, my tooth must have been worth a lot!"   She put everything back in the envelope and took it with her this morning to show all of her friends. 

Such a big girl!  I knew this day was coming, but I had no idea it would come so soon!
