    The tooth-fairy commeth

    May 4th, 2014

    G has a wiggly tooth. For real this time (as opposed to the past year he’s been telling us he has a wiggly tooth — all the way in the back of his mouth 🙂 ). But yeah, front bottom left incisor is getting ready to make an exit.

    And I’m not ready.

    I’m not ready for missing teeth. Honestly? They kinda creep me out. And I have a whole thing with saliva, so helping someone extract a tooth with all the drooling? Pass!

    And missing teeth-wholes are not cute. The little sharp, saw-blade teeth that come up? Why? The baby teeth weren’t serrated. Why do adult teeth have to be?

    Plus this starts off a whole trend of growing up, with pre-teenage-hood and smelliness, armpit hair, and kids that don’t call me “mommy” anymore.

    Blah!

    Meanwhile, the “tooth-fairy” is ready with a 2 dollar bill. A new toothbrush head (the boys have electric toothbrushes) is also on it’s way.

    Just PLEASE make this teething round not nearly the painful experience it was the first time around!
