It's funny that this thread was revived this week. (Thanks Sunkisst.) The eleven year old lost a tooth on Friday or Saturday evening, so under the pillow it went. Yeah, I forgot until we were all awake on Sunday morning. I had to sneak back to the bedroom where the tooth was still under the pillow, wrapped in a tissue. I tucked two quarters in with it. The going rate on the first tooth lost was $5... after that it has steadily decreased. As you see, we're down to 50 cents now. Can't wait till we talk about the toothfairy being made up. Then we'll talk about Santa... and all sorts of mythology...
