Quick holiday story:
Jack had one of those hanging-by-a-thread front teeth that he refused to brush a few weeks ago. It was turning yellow and brown, and it grossed me out beyond words.
So when he and a buddy were playing football and the tooth finally got knocked out, I was eternally grateful. It was a holiday gift to me.
But Jack was in tears over his inability to find the lost tooth in his friend's front lawn.
He added the item hopefully to his Christmas list:
 |
| Note: the kid also received his requested box of "Fruity Peebles." |
It was a Christmas miracle!
May all your holiday wishes be granted this Christmas Day, and may Santa always have a special reserve of extra teeth in his top dresser drawer just in case.
Because you never know.
Ho ho ho!

| My gift? The best group of wonderful cousins for my boys. These kids rock. |
Did he also get the milk he requested? What a kid! I love his list :) So glad that the tooth showed up! He's going to be so thrilled. Santa rocks!
ReplyDeleteI bought milk that day after he was bummed we didn't have any for breakfast. And Santa does rock!
DeleteWhat a great picture of your family! so many blessings there! I love the story of the tooth, LOL :) And what exactly are sqishy orgens and were those under the Christmas tree too?
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
betty
I made an emergency run to CVS for the Fruity Pebbles, but at 8 pm on Christmas Eve, they didn't have any "Squishy Organs" or whatever the heck those are. The kid did only make his list at about 5 pm Christmas Eve. Maybe he'll plan ahead better next year?
Deletesquishy organs! classic!
ReplyDeleteWhat ARE these?? I have no idea.
Deletexoxo Bad Mother
I was digging through a box of Sheldon's baby crap the other day for a keepsake for her wedding and came across her first tooth. 20 years later it still grosses me out.
ReplyDeleteThe teeth gross me out, too. The only reason I have a few is I throw them in my dresser at midnight after playing Tooth Fairy and forget about them. If I weren't so lazy, they would've been trash a long time ago, and Jack wouldn't of had his "Christmas miracle!"
DeletePhew! I'm glad I'm not the only one who hordes teeth.
ReplyDeleteI've still got my baby sis's first one and she's now tewnty-three!
I almost lost the content of my stomach, when I finally unwrapped it this year.
Hope you and the family had a wonderful Holiday! :)
You, too, Lily! Teeth are gross. It was an accidntal hoarding, but not the first time. I need a cleaning lady.
DeleteSquishy organs and a muffin? How are we not getting updates on those items?!
ReplyDeleteHa! Muffin is his stuffed giraffe (that he requested a family for). And I have no idea what squishy organs are! He made this list Christmas Eve and left me no time for research. I was able to pick up some Fruity Pebbles at CVS.
DeleteOh, those snaggly toothed stubborn front ones that refuse to budge and hang on by a tendril.
ReplyDeleteSorry, now I'm grossing oyou out all over again.
It's okay. I took an Advil today. Life is good.
DeleteAwww, I love this. Who knew Santa kept an eye on teeth? I thought that was the Tooth Fairy's job. Maybe with the poor economy, she was let go. :-) so happy for your boy!
ReplyDeleteStupid down-sizing!
