Losing Teeth

My daughter Becca recently went to visit her dentist for her six month check-up. She is eight years old and was told by her hygienist that she would be losing a lot of teeth real soon. Tonight at supper she lost one of those teeth. It was kinda funny in that all she really wanted to eat was a salad, which was okay because who wants to eat when it is this hot outside. Anyway the rest of us were having a pork chop cooked on the grill which went perfect with our salads. Eventually Becca decides she would like one too just so she could nibble on the bone like the rest of us (we all like to do this cuz it has the best flavor). Well, you can about imagine what happened next, to no one's surprise she starts to cry because her tooth hurts. She obviously bit down on the wrong tooth and oop's it became really loose and dad needed to take it out. Of course it always hurts worse then it actually does but the bigger the scene the bigger the money, or so she thinks. It did bleed an awful lot but it didn't take long to stop. Guess I better let the tooth fairy know she needs to make a stop at our house tonight or I will have one disappointed little girl.
