Election Day and Ben's First Tooth

Ben has had a loose tooth for months. I mean months. I could go back through the blog and figure out when exactly I reported it was loose, but frankly I don't have the time. I want to get down to watch Jon Stewart's election coverage on this hopefully most historic day. Well--finally the tooth came out! He is so happy and proud, and he has the tooth under his pillow right now, waiting for the Tooth Fairy to finally visit him. I am so happy for my big boy!

And what would make me even happier? Why, knowing that his first tooth came out on the same day the United States elected an African American President! Because it is about time.

Funny, my daughter had two baby teeth extracted yesterday, on Election Day, AND we did get our first African American president! We now must consider the Tooth Fairy connection...
