A little long in the tooth?

What's the Tooth Fairy paying out these days? A nickel? A half a saw buck?

I guess it is time for The Boss Lady to take on a part time job. Because The Talker just popped out his first tooth.

Actually, I've heard as high as five bucks a tooth, which might move up to $7.50 or even $10 due to runaway inflation. Hopefully your son doesn't read the blog.

Please don't pelt me with things.

No, no - the tooth fairy leaves beautiful Sacagawea Golden Dollars!
Although I suppose the tooth fairy mght need to settle for boring George Washington Dollars now.

I am anxious to hear other peoples opinions because we have had our first loos tooth for a week now. My friend gives a dollar a tooth and I was thinking a quarter. It was a dime when I was little.

Congrats to the Talker.

Clare got $5 for her first lost tooth and $1 for each one after that.

In our house, the tooth fairy leaves $1 per tooth. What did you end up giving?

Not until I look at this picture, did I realise how much your son has grown and how fast, at that. Seems like just yesterday I started reading your blog with pics of him as a babe. Time sure does fly fast...

One of my friends (David M.) told my son (Jordan) that the tooth fairy was good for $100 per tooth.

I told Jordan to get the money from David. He is still waiting for the cash.

We do a $1.00.

But, with 5 of 'em - and um.. well.. um.. a lot of teeth each.. that adds up to.. um... well.. It adds up to a lot of money...
