Lost Tooth

A few weeks back one of Ava's friends lost her first tooth. That very day she checked all her teeth and decided that one of them was loose. I checked it, and it was in fact a tad wiggly, but barely. I thought for sure it would be months before it came out. Fast forward to this morning when she said, "My tooth is really loose now mom." Sure enough, she was right. It was barely hanging on. A little later in the evening she came running to get me outside with a bloody mouth saying, "mom, I pulled out my tooth." What little kid pulls out their own tooth? Ava. All I could say was "of course you did, Ava." She could not have been more proud of herself.
