Jocelyn is such an awesome kid. She is usually very tough so I am not sure why I was so surprised at her chill attitude about getting her teeth pulled out. Her teeth came in really early as a baby....or at least way earlier than her sisters. (six moths as opposed to 9 and 10 months)...So I wasn't really surprised when she came to me in August with a lose tooth (almost a year earlier than either sister). After a few good days of dedicated wiggling she came to me and said, "Mom will you pull out my tooth." I said, "sure" thinking I would give it a tug and she would cry and never let me touch her mouth again (as her sisters did). She went and got a Kleenex and climbed up on my lap. I counted to three and gave a little tug and that tooth just popped right out....No tears, no drama...just "Owe, that hurt more than I thought it would" with a shoulder shrug and she took off to go write her tooth fairy letter. She asked the tooth fairy to leave some fairy dust for her so she could fly...The tooth fairy only could leave a small sprinkle because she didn't have extras, she still had to fly back to fairyland. It just wasn't quite enough for Jocelyn to get airborne.
A lose tooth

What do you know?! It came right out and no one is crying! Awesome
