This and That

...well, I almost screwed up my tooth fairy duties. I forgot to wake up and switch out the tooth for some cash. Didn't remember til after I woke T up. Luckily, she's both slow to wake and sleeping in my bed. I was able to sneak out to her room and make the switch. Aunt Ceci got this cute quilted fairy that hangs on the door. It has a little pocket in which one can put the tooth/cash. I pretended surprise and she was thrilled.

Meanwhile, it finally happened. T comes running over to me at school during pick up, and I bend down like always and give her a kiss. For the first time ever, she proceeded to wipe it off and say, "Yuck, Mommy, I'm too big for kisses".

SAYS FRICKIN' WHO????????????????

Unfortunately, this appears to be a bit of karma coming around and biting me on the ass. I well remember being embarassed when my parents would kiss me in front of my pals, often resulting in my making some snarky comment. I just don't remember ever doing it in preK. That wasn't until at least 3rd, 4th or 5th grades, at the very least.

Kid loses a 2nd tooth, and thinks she's a teenager. What's up with that?
