Sweet Victory!

Maya has been jealous of all her school friends and cousins losing teeth left and right, while hers stay firmly planted in her gums. Finally at Christmas her front tooth started to wiggle the slightest bit. Since then, she's been moaning and complaining this slow moving tooth, wiggling and dreaming, wishing and wiggling again, and again, and again, until FINALLY....

Victory!

Tonight fresh in the door from gymnastics she finally pulled the thing out! Not a flinch (except from Tadd, who was watching from the hall, pale faced and ready to gag) not even an "ouch"crossed her lips! Way to go Maya!

Wowee! What a big girl. I think your lost tooth makes you look even older, Maya! Quite an exciting event!

I love it! Maya will be all smiles at school tomorrow. Skype me soon Miss Maya, I can't wait to see your smile.

Very cool. I'm impressed that she could pull it herself.
