Topic #3 Childhood Memory

"Once upon a time, there was this little girl about the age of 7. She had beautiful brown eyes and beautiful brown hair. One day she noticed that she had a loose front tooth. A loose tooth!!! Do you know what that means? The Tooth Fairy!! She was good friends with the Tooth Fairy- they went way back to the loss of her first tooth. It had been a little while since the Tooth Fairy's last visit, and the little girl could really use a quarter to get one of those big gum balls in the machine at the grocery store.... what could she do to get that tooth out? Now, I know what you may be thinking- just pull it out or tie the tooth to a string and tie that to the door knob then slam the door! Those just weren't good enough. This little girl had a real big sense of adventure and wouldn't settle for anything less than epic. She wanted this story to be told in every household for centuries and centuries later.

Finally, she thought of the best idea ever. She headed downstairs where her family was sitting, watching TV. She sat right down, smack dab in the middle of the room in a small card board box next to a little plastic shovel. It was time....She took the shovel, put it in her mouth and flipped out her loose tooth! It went flying making a perfect arch onto the floor about 5 feet away from her. Her family looked at her with awe and admiration! What an epic way to lose a tooth!

That night, the little girl put that tooth under her pillow and a few hours later she had a visit from her friend the Tooth Fairy. The little girl woke up the next morning with a whole dollar under her pillow! She went to the grocery store later that day and bought that big gumball. While walking back to the car, chewing, there was a smile on her face as she remembered that most epic day that will live on forever and ever and ever and ever and......"

So that really did happen- the little girl was me. Now, I embellished a little bit : ) but I really did flip my front tooth out of my mouth with a shovel. I was just that awesome.
