Henry, the Tooth Fairy and Exchange Rates

When you live someplace for a year, you realize you'll experience the yearly milestones once in your new home.  Our Austrian Christmas, our birthday's in Austria, etc.  But there are once-in-a-lifetime milestones too.  And Henry experienced one of those hear ... he lost his front tooth.  One of them now, but the other one is loose and sure to go soon (we so hope he'll lose the other one soon because there is nothing like a kid with both front teeth gone!).

Henry, show us that gap-toothed smile!

Anyway, to answer the question we had ... is there a tooth fairy in Austria.  Well, we don't have a lot of details, but it appears the answer is yes.  But the next question is what is the "going rate" for a tooth here?  It seems that it is $1 in the US.  So, we just assumed it is €1.  And our kids are savvy enough to know that €1 is better than $1 (about $1.40 to be precise).  So, suffice it to say that Grace was happy to realize that she now has a loose tooth too :-)
