First Tooth to go

Ethan just lost his first tooth. After asking for many months when he would loose a tooth, he finally got his first wiggly tooth. One night while brushing his teeth he was complaining about how wiggly it was. So Jim just gently took a hold of it and it just came right out.

Well, the tooth fairy left Ethan a dollar for his tooth. Which would be HUGE in my day. I only got a quarter a tooth and Jim said he go a bag of coins. So the next morning Ethan comes up to me and says "mommy, I am disappointed." I said why. He then tells me that he only got a dollar from the tooth fairy and not a toy. So Jim and I spend most of the day explaining how lucky he is compared to us and that he could turn his tooth fairy profits into any toy he wants. Later that day I learned that he did not really understand how much a dollar was when he said he would of rather of gotten a penny. I told him I would trade his dollar for a penny. Jim and I explained that a dollar was 100 pennies. By the end of the day he was a little more excited about his dollar.
