We lived in a brand new brick house on a cul-de-sac in Bedford Texas. I was around six years old. I remember one afternoon sitting at the kitchen table eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and I lost my tooth when it got stuck in the sandwich. I remembered being shocked and devastated that this had happened to me. Lol I didn't think something like that was possible. I got really upset and my Mom told it was going to be ok. She said I should put the tooth under my pillow that night and the tooth fairy would bring me some money. Then my fear turned to excitement! I couldn't wait till bedtime.
I think it's funny how something so simple as losing a tooth in a sandwich could seem like such a tragedy to a little one. As adults we don't see how tramatic this kind of incident could be for a small child. So we should really watch our reactions as to not scar a small child for life.
