Lost Tooth #3

Well Lindsey FINALLY lost her 3rd tooth tonight! It literally has been loose since November. I have no idea why it took so long, but thankfully it came out tonight. She barely touched it and it fell right out! We are were looking at it in the mirror of the bathroom, and I DROPPED IT DOWN THE DRAIN!! Really?! How could this have happened?! So Lindsey went right to the kitchen and composed a note to the Tooth Fairy. She left it on the bathroom sink. I am pretty sure the Tooth Fairy will see it and be very generous to her. Especially since her Mama dropped it down the drain and it has been loose for 5 months! :)

My Birthday!

Yesterday was my birthday and I had a very nice day! The girls made beautiful cards that opened before work. My team gave me a nice card and a delicious cake and brownies for lunch. Then we met for dinner at La Carreta (my fav) after class. They sang to me in Spanish and I wore a huge sombrero on my head, the girls laughed so hard! When we got home, they were anxious for me to open their presents. The girls each gave me a charm for my bracelet, and they even picked out a nice Vera Bradley bag for school. We had an ice-cream cake for dessert and had a nice evening as a family!

SO Happy! :)

This is what I received via email this afternoon...I cried!
