First Tooth

Ava lost her first tooth on Sunday afternoon while we were at church in Primary.  It was during opening exercises and I was about to lead the kids in singing a reverence song.  Ava ran up to me and exclaimed, "My tooth came out!"  Tess was sitting right there in the front row and she started jumping up and down and screaming for joy.  The two of them caused quite a stir and commotion and all the kids got really excited.  Ava put the tooth in my hand and luckily, just at that moment, I saw Luke in the hallway.  I motioned for him to come in and I handed him the tooth and asked him to take it home and put it in a safe place.  Ava put the tooth under her pillow Sunday night and received a dollar bill in it's place from the "tooth fairy."  The tooth she lost was the bottom middle left incisor.
