Mom: "Josh, your tooth is WAY ready to come out, you gotta let me pull it."
Josh: "NO WAY!!!"
Mom: "Honey, it won't hurt. It's barely hanging on. If we don't pull it out, you might swallow it."
Josh: "NO WAY!!!"
Mom: "I'll give you one more day. We have to pull it out tomorrow, ok?"
Josh: (Hesitantly) "ok"
The next evening -
Mom: "OK Josh, it's time to pull your tooth out."
Josh: "I don't want to! I'm scared! Do we have to?"
Mom: "Yep."
(Mom very gently pulls at the tooth.)
Josh: "Mom, you missed it."
Mom: "Nope, it's right here."
Josh: "OH! You were right!" (I love those words!)
