Is this normal..?

Yesterday was my daughters 5th birthday. And for some reason.. I was sad. And to top it off she lost her first tooth yesterday as well. So I was just so in shock, and sad. Why??? And is it normal for kids to lose teeth at her age? It just seems so young... Hmm. I cant believe I am so sad.. Weird.. All theese emotions that come with having kids.   This was so me yesterday.

You know my 5 year old daughter just lost her tooth this weekend. I was suprised and sad too. I always thought that it was closer to 7 that they lost teeth. She is just growing so fast! But then again she has always been a little advanced.
Did the tooth fairy come?

Jan. 24, 2007 at 10:49 AM Yes it's normal, my kids had all lost several teeth by the time they went to school. I know how you feel, my daughters fist day at school was so bad for me, she was excited, we had done it several times before with the boys, but it hit me wrong that day, I called my hubby crying, he asked what was wrong and I told him I had just left my baby with strangers! It's so hard to let them grow up!

Jan. 24, 2007 at 11:14 AM Hi girls usually lose their teeth sooner than boys.Yes it is normal. My oldest son turned 10 on the 6th and it was very sad for me. I kept thinking I can't believe it has been 10 years since he was born!

Jan. 24, 2007 at 11:26 AM HEHE about the tooth fairy, she didnt have any cash on hand so she was contemplating on whether she should leave a check or just have Kaelyn put it under her pillow tonight.  : ) She decided to have Kaelyn leave it under tonight. It is extremely hard, I didnt know I was going to have such a hard time this year, but it means she goes to school, and then she is in the hands of the school while she is there. So darn scary...
