And that's the tooth ...

Today, the eldest came up to me while we were at a birthday party and complained that her loose tooth was bothering her. She'd bitten it again, and it was hurting. (If you recall, at the end of a loose tooth's career, the bottom of it is sharp and jagged ... and can hurt.) So I said, "Well, then pull it out." And she did. She was very excited to be able to show off the bloody tooth to all her pals. I was very excited that she listened to me. :)
