Gracie’s Class Tooth Journal

This past Sunday Gracie lost her 5th tooth.  The baby tooth was so tiny!  I can’t imagine there is enough room for her permanent tooth to come in…guess we will see what happens. {She lost the one that is to the right of her “front teeth”.  You can barely see the opening in the picture below}.  She told her teacher at school on Monday about her tooth and she sent her home with the classes’ “I Lost A Tooth” journal.

I think the journal is such a neat idea!  She had a great time flipping through the pages reading about how her friends lost their tooth and of course how much money they got from the tooth fairy. {I need to have a chat with some of these tooth fairies about the going rate for teeth these days…yikes}.  Gracie really had fun adding her journal entry.

The picture is of her laying on the couch while Daddy pulled her tooth out and the journal entry reads: My name is Gracelyn Taylor I lost my tooth on November 8 my dad pulled it out it hurt so much and I love it and i got one dollar.”

This such a fabulous idea...what a smart teacher because you know the kids LOVE to tell that story...it is kind of like mom's and birth stories!

I also LOVE how you edited the picture so that her journal entry was in color....so clever!
