I have exactly 3 minutes to post right now.
It's crazy busy, I have a lot going on in my head, and THREE times that much going on in the dayhome.
But today,
I got to be there for someone's first lost tooth.
Maybe that's insignificant to others, but when it's not my child, I'm glad that I get to be there for that moment. To celebrate them, to save the tooth for Mommy to see, and to watch the joy in their eyes when they first look in the mirror at the new, grown-up gummy smile. And, of course, I love the three-year-olds who then inform me that THEIR teeth are 'wiggly'. Love that.
I honestly melt a little inside. It's THAT good.

I LOVE the Jack-O-Lantern smiles!! And I have a 3 year old who does the same thing. She is convinced that all of her teeth are loose!!
Awwww! Plus the toothfairy!
I know- it was totally cute. Mom came to get him, and he showed her. She was sooo excited too, and turned to me and thanked me with a huge smile on her face! I loved it. What a joy to be part of that moment for them!
Wow, your job is awesome, huh?
Glad you got the book. I hope you'll like it!
I love that it means something to you. If I had little guys, I'd want their care person to feel it's important too.
Ahhhh, so cute- and what a relief to know you can fall asleep without the fear of forgetting to slip the good under the pillow later!
I know, I get all the joy, AND I get to keep my coins! ;)
