Mary Carol lost her first tooth (naturally - you will recall the dentist removed her two upper teeth after a face-first fall) while eating a granola bar. She swallowed it. She's looking extra gappy now, but it's cute. She's so proud.
William completed his first job for money. He's been asking for ways to earn money so he can buy more Lego sets, but when I suggest the job, he fizzles quite quickly and chooses to remain poor. Today, he asked for a job and I told him he could earn a whole dollar by gathering, washing, drying, folding and putting away a load of laundry. He did it well and smiled the whole time. He completed the job and I asked him how he would like to take his money, in change or in one crisp bill? He chose the change, the more the better. I gave him 50 pennies and 10 nickels. His eyes were huge and he took great pride in dropping each coin into the Cow Bank we purchased just the other day at the store. He's already asking for a second chance at cleaning out the car to earn more money. He fizzled the first time, but perhaps with a little experience of getting paid, he may finish the job this time.

I can't believe this. They are getting bigger by the minute.
