Toothless

So my baby lost her first tooth this week.  It is so bittersweet.  I got the phone call at work, her sitter called and said that my baby needed to tell me something.  I knew it as soon as she got on the phone before she could say anything.  This tooth has been loose for awhile.  In fact the other night I thought it had fallen out and we just didn't notice.  I was so excited to hear the news.

When I got home from work I was so excited to see my baby girl and congratulate her again on her big milestone.  When she walked through the door however, she was very quiet.  She came up to me and asked me not to tell anyone about her lost tooth.  I told her that I had already told her Grammy and Papa and her aunts and uncles.  She just sighed, she said that she just didn't want to talk about it.

Apparently it really weirded her out, which is so unlike her.  I guess she just didn't want to acknowledge it.  I thought I had well prepared her for this and her brother definitely told her about the benefits of losing your teeth. But I guess maybe it actually happening scared her a little.

She seemed better about it today,  asking me questions and looking at the space in the mirror.  She asked if her next teeth will fall out too.  I explained as much as I could to her and that all kids lose their baby teeth to make room for the big teeth and that everything she saw was completely normal.  I asked her if she had any other questions and she seemed satisfied with my answers.  So hopefully when it happens again she won't be so traumatized.

I just never now what to expect with this one.

Kids Do the Darndest Things

She is at it again.  What can i say?  This little one always keeps me on my toes.  Never a dull moment, and I must always be prepared.  But I must say, I just was wasn't prepared for this one.

It was Friday when I picked her up from school that the school principal informed me of her latest shenanigans.

I have yet to try to figure out this one, but the Thursday before she went up to one of her friends mom with what I was told attitude.  "Why did you break up with my momma on Facebook?"  was what I was told she said, and she had the body language to go along with it.  I must add I have never met this mom prior to this altercation.  The lady told her nicely that she didn't know who she was or who her momma was.  Apparently my little one was confused because she continued to try to figure out who broke up with me on Facebook. The principal was laughing as she told me the story.

My reaction was oh boy these people must think I am psychotic or something.  Throwing tantrums after being unfriended on Facebook.

On the car ride home I asked the little one where she got her information from.  So she asked me who broke up with me on Facebook.  I told her that I had no idea what she was talking about. My son and I couldn't stop laughing. She was still convinced that someone "broke up" with me on Facebook.

The next evening I met this mom at their kindergarten graduation, had my little one apologize for her disrespectful attitude.  We both had a good laugh about it.  We are now friends on Facebook and she has promised that she will not break up with me.  So everything worked out.

Well at least I know that my little one has my back.  What will she come up with next?  I'm afraid to find out.
