"Mom, you missed it"



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!)
