Last Sunday Carsen's front tooth was hanging on by a thread. He tried and tried to get it out, but it would not come. So he finally asked me to pull it out. The very thought of pulling a tooth makes me nauseous. I have never pulled out a tooth in my life. Not one of my own and certainly not someone else's. After hours of coaching, the tooth still wasn't out, so after one final plea from Carsen I got a paper towel, wrapped it around the tooth and pulled that little sucker out with a very slight tug.
Carsen was so excited and fell right to sleep so that the tooth fairy would visit. Amazingly enough, she came on time and all was well.
Carsen loves to have the hole in his mouth. He has been blowing air and spitting water out of it all week! He never wants a new tooth to come in.
