the missing tooth


Etienne's newest nest in our bedroom.
     Blake is always wiggling his lower teeth, being a kindergartner, tooth talk is the coolest.  Yesterday Etienne discovered a loose tooth, and giving his knack for taking things apart, he had his tooth pulled out by bedtime(think ouch and gross because both words describe the event!).  Ryan and I were convinced that the whole tooth fairy business would further decrease Etienne's up-all-night behaviors.  Wrong! I am sure God was chuckling at us.  The kid actually snored.  I have never seen him sleep so well as he did last night!
     Further evidence of God's grace in our family is that Blake could care less that Etienne lost a tooth before him.  Chalk it up to his self-assurance if you want to, but I say it's a grace thing that Blake didn't feel bad. (Ok, maybe he's too assured, he did say 'my teeth are super strong you know.')
Is this further evidence that E's age isn't  objective?!
