Finn lost his second tooth on Saturday. It was there when he sat down to lunch and gone when he finished his PB&J. I was relieved that he didn't freak out about not having the actual tooth. It was as if he and the Tooth Fairy already had an understanding.
When he found the dollar under his pillow Sunday morning he wondered why she hadn't left a note, too. I refrained from telling him that the writing-component of the Tooth Fairy (Jason) had fallen asleep before he got the chance to write a note and the sneaking-in portion of the Tooth Fairy (me) was just happy that she stayed awake late enough and remembered to plant the dollar.
Now, two nights later, the tooth pillow is back under his pillow and contains a dollar and a quarter. A different dollar, Finn says. He left this money out for her Saturday night, but she didn't take it. Its for her to give to other kids...sweet, and odd.
