She had a loose tooth and has been working on loosening it for two weeks. 

I suggested that she write a note to the Tooth Fairy. After all, this was her first tooth. The Tooth Fairy doesn't know who she is or what she would like. I also recommended that she tell the Tooth Fairy that it would be okay to surprise her in case the Tooth Fairy didn't have any puffy balls, or Littlest Pet Shops on a Sunday evening.

Monday morning I went in to wake my daughter up. She was looking at her gift. "Mom! The Tooth Fairy went to Big Lots!" (Completely forgot that my daughter can read.) Boy, that Tooth Fairy is so practical, getting items on clearance and then saving them in her garage.

Our local public library has a summer reading program for the kids that allows them to win small prizes while logging their reading. They also have the chance to win a big prize at the end of the summer. My daughter has picked out a big fancy Ice Cream Truck (with about 200 accessories to be left around the house for me to step on). My son has picked out a Paw Patrol set. 

My daughter can read on her own for the most part, but my son (4.5) still likes to snuggle and be read to. He is definitely my Reading Best Buddy.
