Friday Thoughts is a light-hearted commentary.
THIS WEEK, my two girls were roughhousing when there was a shriek from my 6-year-old, Grace, who cried out, “I swallowed my loose tooth!”
Not knowing the tooth fairy rules, I wondered whether the actual tooth has to be present for the tooth fairy to leave money. I hoped not, because I had visions that Grace was going to make me hunt for that tooth in a day or two.
Fortunately, the crisis was averted moments later when Grace started to cough and up came the tooth. The next morning it was nice to see her toothless grin beaming when she discovered the present from the tooth fairy under her pillow.
