What Can You Buy With Teeth?


The above missing tooth of Tage's brought a one dollar bill and a pack of gum from the tooth fairy. Little did we know that this lost tooth was the beginning of a mass massacre on the mouths of young children in our home over the next couple of days. The morning after the tooth fairies arrival brought new attention to the concept of loose wiggly teeth. When Simon realized there were goodies on the other side of lost teeth he decided he needed to step it up and participate in this game of loosing teeth. Before we knew what was really going on Tage was running up stairs yelling "We have and emergency!!!" Simon was right behind with a mouth full of blood and 2 teeth hanging...literally...out of his mouth! There was not an ounce of panic just a bit of concern wondering how much trouble he was going to be in for convincing his brother they needed to knock his teeth out so he too could get that coveted pack of gum and dollar bill. A few days later after we pulled the teeth and moved on, all filled with different lessons learned, I found Violet sitting in her room wiggling her teeth. I asked her what she was doing and she said..."taking out my teeth." Agggg!
