"It Came Out!"

When you ask Enoch to list his friends, he includes his dentist.  Yep, I think Enoch has spent more time with Dr. Lambert than his friends the last few months.  Poor kid; he has teeth issues - cavities, too many teeth and teeth that are too big for his mouth.  He's a trooper about it though.
When something goes right with his teeth, we really celebrate it at our house.  He has had very few teeth fall out, mostly they have been pulled out to make space for the new teeth coming in behind.  Tonight, a tooth fell out - sort of.

Do you see how ready that tooth is to come out?  It has been hanging on for a few days.  He was complaining that it hurt, that he couldn't chew on that side.  It really needed to come out.
Enoch, being Enoch, couldn't just pull it out.  Oh no, he had to do something crazy.
He tied some floss to his tooth and the other end of the floss to his remote control car.

 

It worked wonderfully!  Enoch started his car, it slightly pulled on his tooth and it popped out.  He yelled, "It came out!"  We had to search  all over for it before we found it across the room.

And, for all that work, the Tooth Fairy brought Enoch one dollar.
