That sucker has been wiggly for a looooong time now. So long that his permanent teeth started to come in behind them! Which, I guess isn’t all that uncommon for the lower front teeth.
Yesterday afternoon, while driving to my mom’s he screeched “I pulled my tooth out”. He was so incredibly excited. It was like hitting the jackpot for him. I looked back to see a bloody mouth! Pleasant.
That evening, I went to a meeting at Charlie’s school and when I returned home he was fast asleep. He stayed home sick from school that day and went to sleep pretty early. The next thing I know, we hear Charlie talking. I could not make out what he was saying. When I reached his room, he was saying “What about my tooth fairy thing”. He has this really cute ‘Tooth Fairy Helper’ that we purchased from my friend Koz’ Etsy shop when she was fund raising for a walk. Then he said “DADDY forgot my tooth fairy thing”! I went in and helped him get it all ready. Let me tell you, that made the Tooth Fairy’s job much easier.
Later that night the Tooth Fairy paid him a visit and left him a bottle of Jones Orange & Cream Soda, Orange Tics (Tic Tacs), Fingerboard and a little cash. A few of his favorite things!
