Greta's First Lost Tooth

Big day at the Delaney's!  Greta finally lost a tooth.  She has been so wanting to as so many of her friends have already lost several teeth.  But when you don't get your first tooth until you at 13 months, you have to be patient.

For the last while, she's said that her tooth has been loose, but I really couldn't see it.  Then Thursday night at dinner she was crying because it hurt.  Again, I didn't quite sense the urgency that it was going to fall out.  But she showed me and I thought, it still has a while to go.

But the next morning, 6 am, she came running into my room and said look how wiggling it is.  I tried to open my eyes and see it but just couldn't so I say - oh yeah!  Wow!  Then 5 minutes later she came running back in holding her tooth!  She pulled it out all by herself!!  I was so proud and also relieved because I don't like to pull out teeth - at all.
