It’s a real word. Promise. Google it if you don’t believe me.
When it comes to loose teeth, I typically respond just like Drew did tonight.
But, you know what? I’ve got 4 kids. I need to get over it. Corporately, they will lose 80 teeth–make that 81 if you count Evan’s extra tooth.
And, today in particular, I had a lot on my plate. And, I just didn’t want to hear any more complaining about not being able to eat because of that loose tooth. I was just a wee bit shorter about everything today.
She let me at her with a napkin. And, that was it.
Mind you, the thing was literally dangling and so begging for someone to put it out of its misery. There was only a few drops of blood.
But, you know what? I did it. I pulled the darn thing out. And, frankly, I think I may be deserving of something under my pillow from the tooth fairy tonight just because.
yikes! and yuck! i hate loose teeth too! (*shiver*)
I love the pic of Ashlyn looking in the mirror! Way to go mom! You’re facing your fears
It doesn’t bother me so much to pull them out, but seeing dangling teeth gives me the shivers!
Oh my goodness! I have the same things, a true genuine phobia of loose teeth. Ihave never ever pulled one of my kids teeth, and I hope I never will. I can’t *ugh*!!! YUCK!!!
But good for you Kelly!
Sooo going to go throw up now…..
Oh my… 81 teeth! Congrats on another one down, and also for haning tough momma. The stepping stones of life are not always fun, but they make life what it is… an exciting adventure. Hugs!
You do deserve something for dealing with all those teeth! Oh my! There is something woosy about wobbly teeth isn’t there! And hey, if you aren’t using that extra tooth, send it our way … Nolan is missing one in his set. Go figure!
not sure how i stumbled onto your blog, but i totally hear ya on the dangling tooth thing. we have a 6 year old and she is losing like crazy, and it’s exciting, but i’ll tell ya…teeth outside of the mouth kinda make me want to run far away;)
