On March 24th, 2012, Jackson lost his first tooth. He had been working on wiggling it for a couple weeks. I was working in the yard and my nephew came running up saying Jack's tooth was bleeding. Jackson showed Jon and Jon helped to pull it. The sight of blood usually sends Jack into hysterics. He thinks he's dying. But once we cheered and high-fived, he was pumped. I started to get emotional. I thought of how that was the first tiny tooth in his little baby mouth. I remember the picture I took of him in Easter Bunny ears with those two little teeth gleaming in their full glory. I thought about how this is one of yet another step of him growing up and leaving me. I waited til he left the room to cry...just a couple tears.
