Our first lost tooth.

As we sat watching our family movie Friday night W. came over to me and asked me to look at his tooth because it felt funny. Sure enough it was loose when I told him this he started shaking with excitment and started running all through the house saying... " I have a loose tooth" and " I am going to loose my tooth". When he had somewhat calmed down he told Jeff and I that we needed to... "call the paper and tell them a 5 year old has a loose tooth".
I thought we would not stop wiggling it but to my amazement it was me who continually asked him about it. So last night as I was wiggling it I told him we should get it out right then. He liked the idea of the tooth fairy coming so he agreed. I gave it to good pulls and out it came. He was very brave and although it shook him up a bit at first the excitment came quickly.
It is so wierd to me to see my son go through things I remember from my childhood. It also scares me becasause I wonder if he will remember how much mommy losses it.
