The "Tooth Fairy" rides again

Despite the comments of the so called "Tooth Fairy" and her erstwhile companions Mel the Elf and Molar the Tooth Pirate (see the comments to my last post), I am gearing up to do tooth duty again tonight. Yes, Squidette lost another tooth. To be precise, Mama Squid gently tugged on a tooth and had it come out of Squidette's mouth. Frankly, I think most of this kid's teeth have been yanked by me ... whatever happened to them coming out on their own? (To give credit where due, most of Little Squid's teeth have come out without maternal assistance.)

That said, I must once again appologize for the lack of mitten photos -- by the time I got home from work and finished dealing with the insurance company (someone put a huge dent in my front fender while I was parked at work today) it was too dark to get a decent photo. Tomorrow! I promise! They did keep Squidette's hands nice and warm today.

Tonight I plan to sit in front of the t.v. and knit on niece squid's blankie.

Here's wishing you all a wonderful weekend with no problems from those interfering faries.

If there's a tooth fairy for cats, she owes mine some money. *L*

Squidette is a very brave and trusting young lady. There's no way I would ever let anyone remove a tooth without druging me up... and proving they have a dental degree.

I hope the car stuff isn't too painful.

Dear Cookie and KnittyOtter,

Yes, there is a member of the Toothlist Association specifically for cats. They do not, however, leave money but rather leave cat treats. You never see the treats because your cat eats them before you get up.

Sincerely,

Cat. V. Tee

Dear Mrs. Squid,

Shame on you for maligining my sister fairy. We fairies work very hard to make sure that teeth are claimed and heads are tightened. Has your head fallen off lately? I don't think so! I do my job and I detest interfering know-it-all adults who try to take our jobs and deny our existance. Just see what happens the next time you lose a tooth or have a wiggley head!

Sincerely,

The Head Fairy

And you expect me to service your kid when you put me down? Ha! Just wait and see what she gets in the morning!
