Second Tooth Gone!
We got home tonight from a late work day and dinner. Patty informed us right away that the Tooth Fairy needed to visit. Katherine’s second lower middle tooth has been very wobbly for the last month or so. After bath, Katherine pushed the tooth back and forth with her tongue, and Patty pulled it right out! Steve and I decided that the second tooth going rate is $2 (as opposed to the $5 first tooth rate).
Katherine is on a tear to accumulate money. Yesterday she asked hopefully if she could earn extra money by helping with laundry. I informed her that laundry is part of base chores, but that I would talk to Dad about extra work around the house. We’re still brainstorming…I’m not sure what she’s saving her money for, but she sure seems motivated!
Allison Stories
Being around Allison is always very interesting. On Monday, coming home from her violin lesson, we stopped by Chevron to fill the hybrid with gas. As we pulled away from the station, Allison asked, “Where does the gas go?” Unfortunately, I didn’t have a very good answer right away, but it was thought provoking. She essentially was wondering why we keep filling the car with gas.
Earlier this week I walked by the fish tank and noticed a new addition. Allison had assumedly found some old goldfish stickers in her arts and crafts area. She picked the gold colored stickers and put them directly on the fish tank. Katherine walked by later and immediately started to peel them off. ๐
