Jack O' Lantern

These are Harrison's Rules that he gave me a couple weeks ago. It gave me a good laugh. My favorite one is that he can blame everything on his sister. And I guess he wants to sell his homework for $1.00, but I don't think he will have many buyers. Harrison you are soooo cute!!

Now, on to the real story. Check out these teeth. They have been a topic of conversation since December when Cassidy gave him a taste of her sucker then jerked it prematurely out of his mouth. Both front teeth were slightly loose, so when she did this, she caused them to stick out like BUCK teeth. They looked so funny we tried to pay him to hurry and wiggle them out, but I guess they were not quite ready.

Finally, he was playing with his friend at school and they accidentally bumped into each other and it knocked out the right one. (Maybe I should pay his friend haha) So then, he looked like a Jack O' Lantern because he had been wiggling the left one and it was half way hanging out, crooked and too far forward. So I tried a few of my own ideas like making him bite into corn on the cob, biting into an apple, tying it with a string to Zeek's collar and throwing his favorite ball to fetch and sneaking in his room with pliers while he was sleeping.....Just kidding about all that, but the thought did cross my mind. :) But nothing worked. For another couple of weeks, Harrison kept his Jack O' Lantern tooth. I could not help but laugh when I looked at him, but we laughed together so it was fun.

One night I put in my funny looking teeth. (Why do I have these??? Oh yeah, I think I wear them with my mullet wig on Halloween...did I just admit that??) Anyway, we had another good laugh in the kitchen.

FINALLY, Harrison woke up one morning and surprised me with this big smile! Look how cute!!! We never did find the tooth. I guess he must have swallowed it or it is buried in the carpet under his bed. He doesn't know what happened, he just woke up and it was gone!!Just a side note: This kid is the sweetest kid around. Today, he gave me a heart candy and told me I had to do whatever it said on it. I was so happy to find that it said "hug me". Oh Harrison, how did I get so lucky to have you. I LOVE YOU!! xoxox
