Our Horsie proudly displays a gummy smile...ok albeit only one tooth missing...its still a milky out..
oh where oh where is it...exactly...
We dont know...
Monday morning he left a little boy with all his teeth in tact and Monday night he came home without his first ever baby tooth, that popped up at like 4 months or something ridiculous like that,,,that all seems an entire different life ago...when the ordinary milestones of teeth, sitting, standing, crawling, walking, TALKING were how we measured life, how we measured our horsie...how far we have come...
So in a normal setting...
This would be the start of TOOTH FAIRY TALES...
The start of replacing yuky milk teeth with money...
of make believing in the amazing little mouse or fairy or whatever with a penchant for collecting teeth and all things toothy...
But for us and Horsie...it is total different game we play...
Horsie doesnt even realise he doesnt have a tooth..or rather that a tooth is missing...
There are no tooth fairy stories and money issues...
What IS a PROBLEM is not knowing what happened to it...did he pull it out himself? How long was it loose? Where exactly did he throw it...
Enter nightmares of a different kind...ATTACK OF THE KILLER RETURNING MILK TOOTH...
Did he swallow it? Start the JAWS music...dooooo.. dup ...doooooo... dup..dooooo dup
And with all the focus on therapies and the like...
We completely forgot about milk teethies falling out...
So instead of money weve decided a FRUIT Stick under his pillow will do...
That is more important and precious than gold for Horsie...
So the fruit stick fairy has dropped on by...yaaaaaaaaaay...
Love you Horsie
He probably swallowed it :) He, he... Feeling you, Monika. One of the things I'm really looking forward to when our 'potentially regular' baby is born in October, is dressing up like the Easter Bunny and putting out cookies for Santa.
