The Swallowed Tooth


I heard a blood curdling scream from Jonathan while he was having his “bedtime snack” of a leftover hamburger from tonight’s cookout with theValencias.  (Yes, a bedtime snack!!!)  Scared to death I ran to him, wondering what in the world could have happened.  He was crying by then but he managed to say “I think I swallowed my tooth!”.  I couldn’t believe it - it hadn’t even seemed that loose.... but sure enough, he had swallowed it.  Apparently when he took a bite of hamburger it came out and then he unknowingly swallowed it.  He was devastated.  He likes to save his teeth as they fall out!!   :)   But big brother consoled him with “I’ll bet you’ll get a ton of money because the tooth fairy will feel really sorry for you”.  Then Jackson looked at me and smiled.  Thanks, Jackson!   :)   That did cheer Jonathan up a bit, though.   And I just hope that teeth “digest” okay. :)
