Last week all of my children had a break from school. We had orthodontist appointments on Monday so I decided why not follow that up on Tuesday with appointments at the dentist. They all needed a good cleaning. Note to self: 8:30am dentist appointments for 4 children on school break...not one of my better ideas! We got a lovely ice storm on Monday night so our 15 minute drive took a weeeeee bit longer, as I let the teenager drive...again not one of my more banner plans!! Anyway, Son3 had to have a tooth pulled. Apparently the 2nd tooth was in enough to loosen up the baby tooth just enough that food was getting stuck in it and creating an abscess. The dentist let me know he was going to "help" it a little bit. Now Son3 has a mark on his lip because his siblings wanted to see if he could feel them pinching his lip. Anyway, with Thanksgiving and the ice storm the tooth fairy missed our house. Last night in the kitchen the conversation went something like this..
Son3 "Mom, the "toothfairy" hasn't come yet" (making little quotation marks each time he said toothfairy)
Mom "Well if you don't believe you don't receive"
Son3 "You said it was because of the weather"
Mom "Well, last week that was the case, now I think it is because you don't believe"
When did they get so smart??
