Best Present

Yesterday morning our family received what we have collectively decided to be the best Christmas present of the year. Timmy's wiggly front tooth, the one that has been hanging on and frustrating his eating for over a year despite the many efforts to ease it out, finally fell out in the middle of the night. Timmy took a sword to the tooth last summer which pushed it sideways and made it loose. We assumed it would fall out soon but it remained in an awkward position and wiggly state. We were three weeks away from an oral surgeon removing the crushed and stubborn tooth. Thankfully nature, and biting into a piece of prime rib for dinner, took care of the situation.

Liberated from the frustrating tooth, we celebrated by taking Timmy to McDonald's for lunch. He was thrilled to be able to bite into the cheeseburger without the "tooth crunch."  Talk about a Christmas miracle!
