The Tooth Bunny (a/k/a Easter Fairy)

Well, we finally got our gift-giving "perfect storm." The six year old lost his first tooth on Easter Eve. We had The Bunny and The Fairy on the same night!

His take: Hmmm...maybe they'll fight. I think the Tooth Fairy will win!

He lost his second tooth the next day (Easter Sunday). His total haul for the event was in the neighborhood of $20! Always a good plan to lose a tooth in the middle of a party with all grandparents in attendance. Score!

On a related note, the boy has finally figured out how to play the Head Game his little sister is so good at. (See previous post about how she feeds in to his hypchondria). Well, last night we were watching the new Charlotte's Webb movie (cute...but I still hate spiders and would have squashed Charlotte and shrieked like a girl...all those spindly legs!). He says to the four year old...

He: Hmmm. I like Wilbur. I like Wilbur on bread with mustard. Mom, pack me a Wilbur sandwhich for lunch tomorrow!

She: Waaaaaaaaah!

He: What are we having for dinner again?

Me: {muffled through my hand} Pork chops.

He: Mmmmmmmm. Wilbur chops.

She: Waaaaaaaaahhh {big tears}
