So today was an exciting day for Imp, his very first tooth fell out. It was a very different experience from when Hpops first lost one With Imp from the moment he discovered he had a wobbly tooth he has taken every opportunity to point out to whoever happened to be listening. Hpops went into denial and didn’t want it to ever come out! Imp wobbled with his finger and flicked with his tongue until today whilst playing a game he suddenly went very still.
‘I think,’ he said, then nodded, ‘My tooth has come out but I might have eaten it!’
He hadn’t it was on his tongue and duly rescued and awaiting collection from the tooth fairy! He was very excited about this turn of events and fussed a lot about his new gap! Hpops when presented with the same even a couple of years ago had burst into tears!
Pixie has some new experiences today as well. She attended a birthday party where she was able to handle animals and had no problems holding a snake, lizard and most impressively a tarantula. She also got to pet a variety of other animals and seemed quite happy to do so! How different my children are turning out to be!
We are all back to school tomorrow, and I am hoping that I can get back into some training and writing. I have been re-connecting a bit with the writing in communication in preparation for unleashing new work soon. I have also managed to run just over 8 miles in marathon preparation which is pleasing as it is nearly a third of the way round!
Imp did have another little gem for us, he was talking to us about football and came out with;
‘Now it’s cold, we have to wear long sleeved trousers!’ I did manage to ask him what he wore in the summer and he gave the logical answer – ‘short sleeve trousers!’ Of course – silly me!
