Alice is starting to lose teeth. She’s quite happy about it although she says that I shouldn’t call her “gummy girl” because of it on the theory that she’s going grew new teeth to replace the lost ones (as if!). Alice came home the other day from school with a tooth in a bag which she immediately showed to Mom and me. She lost her first tooth at dance because bloody injuries at dance are a tradition for Alice.
Oddly, Alice like her siblings never asks about the Tooth Fairy. Despite her greediness for presents, cash doesn’t excite her very much.
