Me: "Buddy, we need to get that tooth out tonight."
Tuck: "NO.WAY! Don't touch it. It will hurt."
Chris: "It's okay. We won't touch it."
Me: "Right. Whenever you're ready. But seriously, that tooth is hanging on by a thread."
Chris: "Let's change the subject. Who wants to go to the toy room and play dodgeball when we get home?"
Mags and Tuck: (in unison) "I do! I do!"
Chris: "Perfect. It'll be fun. You guys remember how to play, right? We try to get the other person out by hitting each other with the balls?"
Mags: "Oh, yeah, baby!"
(Quiet interlude of chewing, french fry dipping, sipping of drinks)
Chris: "Well, there goes that plan."
Mags: "BUSTED!"
But honestly, anytime now would be great!
Smart kid! Has it fallen out yet? I used to let mine hang by a thread when I was young, too.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Kathy. Ewwww!
DeleteAlas, Mags was the one who got it out by reaching over for something and banging her hand into his mouth. We should have hired her days ago! :)
Cute post. Next time suggest a pillow fight! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! We'll do that for the next one. :)
