Before the sun came up this morning, Jess comes bolting into our room, waking us up with a delighted yelp “My tooth is Wobbly!“.

And it really is.

She even holds her head still with her hands so that you can get maximum wobbliness when you touch it!

Edited later to add….

Jess couldn’t wait to tell everyone about this tooth. One friend said “That is early isn’t it?” . Yes, she is only in Preschool and yes, I am very touchy when it comes to this little girl. She is tall and strong, more like a 7 yr old than 5. But pretty! OMG she is gorgeous and intelligent and will go far in life. I want to protect her forever. Anyway, I digress (I am a bit emotional today!!). This email came from Kate when Jess told her about the tooth…

Dear Jessica,

WOW…you have a wobbly tooth. That is great news, it means that your adult tooth is now big and strong and ready to come to the top, so it is going to make your baby tooth pop out.

It means that you are getting older and wiser…and growing way too fast….I think I will definately have to put that brick on your head to stop you from growing!!!

lots of love

Thank you Kate. I couldn’t have put it better myself xxxx
