All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth"...

(June 2007):

Okay maybe not "my two front teeth" but at least the bottom two teeth. Caleb and I discovered on Saturday that he has his first two loose teeth (his two front teeth on the bottom). Caleb was so excited...but not for the reasons I thought. Caleb has always been fascinated with money (more than your average kid). He absolutely loves money and if there is a coin within a 1 mile radius he will find it. Though Caleb's teeth are pretty loose, they are no where near ready to be pulled out. Caleb had other plans...he wanted me to pull out his two loose teeth so that the tooth fairy would visit him that night and bring him money. When asked how much the tooth fairy would be bringing him he replied, "ten dollars for each tooth". I told him that unless the value of teeth had dramatically inflated in the last decade, he was probably looking at $5 a tooth if he was lucky. Unfazed Caleb stated he would just have to pull out all of his teeth then in order to "get rich".
