Student: NURSE!!!!!
Me: *almost choking on my lunch* yes! what's wrong?!
Student: I LOST MY TOOTH!!!!!
Me: *silent panicking d/t my aversion to loose teeth* oh cool!
Student: YEAH!! It was lunch time and there I was when I felt my tooth go wobble wobble and then I felt blood and then POOF! My tooth fell out!!
Me: Well that's the most exciting tooth-losing story I've ever heard!
Student: CAN I CALL MY MOM?!?!
Me: Sure, but try not to yell in the phone. It's hard to understand when people yell in the phone.
Student: OK!!! *calls parent and repeats same story. yelling of course*
I love story time

i was just discussing with some teachers yesterday about having a 5th grader coming into my office in utter panic over a slightly wiggly primary molar. I reminded this student that this wasn't their first rodeo with the tooth fairy and pointed them to my dixie cups. Oh the utter drama of it all!
