Yesterday, Caleb lost another tooth. For a little while, we actually thought it was lost! He was telling me this story about how he thought it had fallen out days or weeks before onto the floor while he was playing...I was convinced he must have dreamed that because I was pretty sure we all would have noticed it missing before that moment in the car. The consensus was that he had swallowed a second tooth in his (short) lifetime.
When Joseph went to change his sheets before tucking Caleb in bed, lo and behold, there was the tooth!?
Proof of my dream theory? I think so. He was dreaming about losing it as it was happening. Try to convince me otherwise. You're talking to a Mama whose son dreams just like she does and this one would make PERFECT sense with many dreams I have had.
Anyway, the title of this post relates not to any of that but rather to the toy the tooth collector left for said tooth.
A little dragon with markers and stickers for Caleb to decorate. So he and I set about creating the dragon of his fancy this morning.
One of the stickers was a worm, don't ask my why. So I suggested to him as he had already used most of the stickers and informed me he wanted to try to use as many of them as possible, "you could put the worm on there coming out of his mouth, kind of like he's eating it."
His response?
"Why would I want to do that? That would be disturbing!!!"
Who knew?!
Jeez, Mom, don't be so gross!
