A young child asks a good question
Tooth Dilemma


Look Mom! I lost a tooth.
Will I get a new one, like my sister Ruth?
Or can I have a long one, like a snake?
Or a pretty gold one, like Uncle Blake?

I don’t want the ones like Grandpa Ted.
That’s too many at one time
And I have to take them out when I go to bed.

My smile looks funny.
And I look like a moose.
Oh no not now. A second tooth is loose!
