“The Day I Lost My First Tooth”

I had been waiting for weeks to lose my first tooth. All my friends had already lost theirs, and I was starting to feel left out. One day, during lunch at school, I bit into an apple and felt something strange. When I touched my tooth, it wiggled more than before!

That evening, I told my mom, and she said it was almost time for my tooth to fall out. I could hardly wait. Every time I looked in the mirror, I would wiggle it with my finger. Finally, while I was brushing my teeth before bed, the tooth popped out! I was so excited, I ran to show my mom.

That night, I put the tooth under my pillow for the Tooth Fairy. The next morning, I woke up to find a shiny coin in its place. I felt so proud that I had finally lost my first tooth. It was a small moment, but it made me feel like I was growing up. Now, I couldn’t wait for my next tooth to come loose!
