"When it come out, Mummy?" (Soon...)
"Is fat a long time?" (probably not...)
"How long is it?" (I don't know...)
"Mummy, LOOK! It coming out?" *poke tooth into odd angle... watch Mummy turn a little green*
"How many sleeps til it come out, Mummy?" (I don't know...)
"Is toof fairy gonna come? Him leaf me chocolate coin?" (It's usually a real coin...)
"Will it hurt?" (no, love...)
"How long it hurt for?" (it won't...)
"It hurt for fee minutes?!?" (are we even in the same conversation?)
"I don't want it to hurt!" (That's good because I already said it won't!)
"I ring Ranny n tell her bout my toof?" (okay...)
*Mummy dials and hands Lily the phone*
"My toof coming out! It gonna hurt fee minute! I don't want it hurt fee minute!!!" *Mummy face palms*
*pause*
"Mummy said so." (wait... what?!?)
*cue Mummy explaining to granny what was actually said.. *
"LOOK!!!" *poke tooth out again, this time in front of a mirror. Now there's two odd angled teeth to make mummy green with*
"Ranny said it won't hurt" (that's right...)
"Why you tell me it hurt?" (I didn't...)
"Yew did! yew said fee minutes!"
*Lily runs to check mirror and completely ignores Mummy's reply to this..just as well really*
Lily's first wobbly tooth. A whole weekend of fun conversations like this one!
The tooth miraculously disappeared Monday evening, (we think she ate it), Mummy's friends brains work a lot faster than Mummy's. By the time I got through the "oh crap! She's going to freak out about this..." moment and onto the "okay.. lets fix it before it starts.." and just before the "how do I actually fix this?" thoughts they had already told her the tooth fairy must have really needed it quickly!
Luckily the tooth fairy didn't forget to put a dragon pound under her pillow... which she paraded at school today.
She's also been opening her mouth really wide to show everyone her new gap. Yes I mean literally everyone. She doesn't have to know them. It's been great fun watching the reactions of people thinking this bounding. muttering, dribbling (its hard to talk with your mouth open) speedy child is going to bite them.
