Innocence
August 6, 2003

When my son, Justin turned seven yesterday, he also lost his first tooth.  The next day he found $20 under his pillow, because the tooth-fairy (ie. Daddy) felt that losing the first tooth on one's birthday deserves more than the usual few bucks. Justin sat up and said, "the tooth-fairy gave me $20, but I don't think I deserve it because I've been kinda bad."
