The Excitement Of The Tooth Fairy Has Clearly Worn Off

So Layla has lost her sixth tooth (as documented in my photo blog) and it was a very different experience from previous losses! We were getting ready to go to her Grandma's to see the new cat and apparently Layla rubbed her mouth with her arm and all kinds of hell broke loose.

You wouldn't think one tiny little tooth could bleed so much but it was a pretty gruesome sight. She basically knocked it almost out... just not all the way. This caused mass hysteria and some serious hyperventilating. I thought the poor girl was going to pass out. See, she's okay with the pain, she's okay with the sound it makes, but she is not... in any way... okay with the sight or taste of blood.

Her gums started to bruise and the tooth was kinda just hanging so I made her pull it and she was not happy about it.

The phone call to her dad was very different from the last one. She barely held back the tears.
