second front tooth

As has been the trend with Gwendolyn's baby teeth, when they're ready to go, they really go. We were eating dinner when Gwennie started complaining of her loose tooth. I suggested that she eat using the other side of her mouth, but it's a challenge to avoid a front tooth. When we told her to be careful not to swallow it (think of the revenue that could be lost!), she got scared and excused herself from the table. A minute later, she returned with the tooth she'd just pulled out. I know that this trick shouldn't be impressive the third time she's tried it, but I'm still in awe.

She's nuts. And determined. :)

I related this story to Liam last night when he was struggling to get out his first top tooth (that has been loose for about 6 months). Oh that all of us were as talented as Gwennie at pulling teeth. Maybe she should come pull Liam's stubborn one!
