All I want for Christmas...but actually...


On Friday, Faith finally lost her other front tooth, just in time to show off her new smile to her friends at school before being let out for Christmas break.  Her tooth had been hanging crooked in her mouth for weeks, begging to come out!!  At her school Christmas party on Friday, her teacher pulled me aside and said that during their sharing time earlier that morning, she raised to her to share something.  When Mrs. Haan called on her, she jumped up in front of the class and started belting out the Chipmunks classic, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, my two front teeth..."  She said, immediately the other kids joined in.

Later that day, when we asked her about it, she sang the song for us, too.  However, the song was quickly followed by a bit of clarification (and to avoid any confusion). She explained that even though she enjoyed singing the song, she really would like some other things from Christmas, too.  :)
