Finally...the anticipation is over!

Matilda has been obsessed with the idea of loosing a tooth since she was about three - which must have been around the time her big brother lost his first! She would ask almost weekly, "When will I get a loose tooth Mum?" Well last Sunday night she woke us in the middle of the night to announce she'd just discovered her top front tooth was wobbly!!!! The next morning there was an urgent request for a tooth fairy pillow to be sewn; it had to have a pink pocket with a white tooth embroidered on the front, the material had to be pink and pretty, and please OH PLEEEASE, ribbons on the top.  Yep, she's quite specific this girl of ours - she knows her mind! I didn't actually get around to making the aforementioned design until last night and phew, just in time. I can't believe that just this afternoon, only five days after discovering it's wobbliness, Matilda pulled it out herself. To say she's excited is an understatement.  And guess what...we've just tested the tooth next to the hole and it's wobbly too!!!


NB. There's nothing so cute as a toothless grin!
