Yesterday, that first wobbly tooth fell out, while Hugo was munching on our first loaf of bread baked in the new oven, not an insignificant event either. In anticipation of a special visit from the magic folk, last week I helped Hugo sew a little pillow with a pocket on the front Before bed he carefully tucked his tooth in the pocket and placed the pillow next to his head. In the darkness this morning, I was woken by a boy showing a me a coin in one hand and a gem in the other, with a look on his face so beautiful it made this growing up caper a little sweeter for one mama to bear.
Oh so sweet! They instantly look so much more grown up with the missing tooth too :-( I love his pillow x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. My oldest boy's first tooth is threatening to come loose as he races towards seven. It is bittersweet. But memorable that it embedded in your first loaf of bread!
ReplyDeleteLovely as always Michelle...how amazing to have such a significant event occur in conjunction with your first loaf of bread :)
ReplyDeleteCute tooth fairy pillow. He is officially not a baby anymore!
ReplyDeleteYes a big step.
ReplyDeleteWe started this journey at the beginning of the year and my son is 4!
Lots of tears from Mum here.

awwwwww. I can just imagine the expression on that little face in the darkness of the new morning :)
ReplyDeleteOh, what a big boy! Poor Mama. Each milestone is bittersweet isn't it. xx
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Hugo! Yes, it's a milestone in our stint as parents when our kids lose their first baby tooth. That's a cute pillow you guys made. I'm sure the tooth fairy loves it.
ReplyDeleteI love the pillow! So precious. I can relate to the bittersweet-ness of littles growing up.
