The Tooth Fairy is on her way (If she remembers!)

Well, Erika has been wiggling her front tooth for about a month now and this morning she came up to me and said, wiggle it now, Mom, it's SO loose. So, I've been wiggling this tooth at her request for a long time now and I'm kind of tired of wiggling teeth so, I gave it one good, pretty hard wiggle. Out it came! Erika's eyes got big and welled up with tears. (Not the reaction I was expecting) She said that she didn't want it to come out today. It felt too weird and she haaaaatttted chewing on a napkin. But after about 10 minutes, she calmed down and I told her how cute she looked with a missing front tooth so we looked at her in the mirror and decided that today was an OK day for the tooth fairy after all.

We, ahem, I mean the tooth fairy gives our kids a dollar per tooth. What about you guys?

The tooth fairy hasn't visited our house yet. I was just curious on how much we will be forking out when the time does come. The amount has definitely been inflated since I was kid. :)
