We had two wonderful things happen today. First and foremost, Elli lost her FIRST tooth. It was a long time coming. I found out, that this child is not going to be the one that loves to wiggle and wiggle till the tooth comes out. We were not allowed to touch it, and it had been dangling for days. She is sound asleep as we speak with the tooth tucked nicely under her pillow waiting for the tooth fairy to reward her. Dean and I have realized that after all is said and done, with 4 kids, we will be shelling out $100.00 as our role as "The Tooth Fairy". WOW!!

And secondly, we got some wonderful rain this afternoon that we so very much needed. Even with underground sprinkling, our grass was starting to get a little prickly to walk on.
