“Mom, what does the Tooth Fairy do with all those teeth she collects from the kids?”
“I don’t know — what do YOU think she does with them?”
“I think she makes necklaces with them! And all kinds of jewelry!”
“Hmm — maybe. Or maybe she makes strings for Christmas trees out of teeth instead of popcorn!”
“YEAH!”
“Or possibly even those little beaded hanging curtain things — but all teeth!”
*gasp* “YEAH!!”
AM I getting too caught up in the moment? It is after all her FIRST TOP tooth and only her 4th to date — poor kid waited through the entire first grade and most of second before she lost even ONE tooth. You think I’m not gonna participate? What kind of mother would I be?
“I think she decorates her house with them . . .”
“Oooh, COOL!”
(Yeah, I agree. That image is best left up to the imagination . . .)
