the tooth fairy {and a 1 day sale}

firsttooth1

*

matthias lost his first tooth yesterday.

further proof that he is growing up (despite our instructions that he stay small forever).

he was so, so excited.

and the tooth fairy brought him 1 dollar bill, 2 quarters, 3 dimes, 2 nickels and a penny.

so he feels totally rich and proceeded to inform every stranger that he had

‘money his pocket’.

that $1.91 is definitely burning a hole.  how soon can we get to a target??

i took the picture on the left through my rainy windshield with my heart filter.

and the books on the right were thrift store find.  love the titles and the darling illustrations.

    Isabella my daughter has lost 4 teeth in the last month. So the tooth fairy better get her money ready for Matthias. I love the lost tooth look.

    Congrats on having your together necklace in InStyle.

    My son lost his first tooth on the same day! Target has been calling his name as well! I have really enjoyed reading your blog! Your jewelry is fantastic!!! I am looking forward to purchasing one soon.

    I’m so excited for Matty… losing that first tooth is such a milestone (for the child and the parents!) I’m also so happy for you, Lisa, to have one of your creations featured in In Style! You’re so deserving.

    As I was admiring the beautiful image of the rain seen through the filter of a heart, I couldn’t help but wonder how different the world might look if always viewed through the filters of our own hearts…

    Wow! It must be inflation at work! When you lost a tooth, you got one quarter, one dime, one nickel and one penny. Nice to see the tradition being carried forward.
    Love, Mom (and Grandma)

    Hi,
    Just found you via Nina’s blog. Your site is beautiful and so is your work! Fun and cute BUT classy and serious at the same time. I have one of those high-end heart filters too :D

    Wow…you found the Stillmeadow book…I love that book….Susan Branch uses quotes from it in her cookbooks.

    It has gone in and out of print for years.

    Nothing like losing a tooth!! That is big excitement in our house and we have a few that are being wiggled to death right now. I’ll be so happy once they are OUT!

    Congrats on the magazine feature! Not at all surprising since your jewelry is gorgeous- and I wear mine all the time and get scads of compliments!! You rock girlfriend.

    Hi Lisa,
    I received the necklace I won today! It is more wonderful than the photos depict. How can I thank-you for giving me a chance to win a piece of your work! You better believe I will be a walking advertisement for you! Have fun at Blissdom. Keeping you and your beautiful family in my prayers! ((Hugs)) Cathy G

    Awwwww…..Matthias losing his first tooth! Love the line about getting to Target! I could LIVE at Target! :)

  17. Teresa on February 3rd, 2010 8:41 pm

    Aaaww! Such sweet images of Matthias. And too cute about the $1.91 burning a hole in his pocket. (I’m decades older than that sweet little guy, but I *still* have that problem with money. ha ha!)

    I’m loving the heart filter! ingenious!!

  18. Teresa on February 3rd, 2010 8:43 pm

    P.S. Best of wishes with David’s mass. Poor guy - he’ll feel so much better when they are able to remove it. (Aren’t kids just the most resilient of us all?! hugs to all of you!)
