Lydia’s first loose tooth!

I haven’t been blogging because usually by evening I feel too sick. But today was a momentous day. Lydia lost her first tooth yesterday, and the tooth fairy came last night. We all agreed we have never seen her so ecstatic as when she lost her tooth. She kept hearing at school about how the other kids had lost teeth, and she was the only one who never had lost a tooth. She was sure she would never lose a tooth, and now that she has, she could not be happier.

Here are a disorganized assortment of pictures from all of the days I haven’t blogged:

The tooth fairy left Lydia some coins (chocolate and real) in a Chinese box. Lydia loves Chinese designs. They are her favorite, and she was over the moon about her new Chinese box.

On one of her sick days, Mary and Abe made a fire truck. She then "set fire" to her doll house (with the stuffed flames you can see in the picture) and rescued her dolls with the fire truck.
