Pics of the missing teeth. They make us laugh whenever we see all the holes. Good thing she lost her two bottom teeth last summer - she wouldn't be able to bite anything! :)
Mary, Erin has gone through experiences like this at school and when we were in Rexburg. I explained to her that she could choose to continue to be friends with those who made her feel sad or friends that make her feel happy. At first, she was afraid to lose her friend, but she got over it when she made friends with other nice kids. Are there other kids where you guys live at that she could play with. Erin finally found new friends who wouldn't say or do things to hurt her feelings. Then I asked her, who do you enjoy being friends with better? So, first I pointed out two options she could choose from and from her choice and experience she figured out which friends she enjoyed playing with. Hope this helps. I know the hardest thing as a parent is seeing your child upset especially when she's doesn't deserve it.
