"My Tooth"
by
Emily

O ne day at my old school, I was telling my friend about my very loose tooth, so loose that I could use my tongue to stick the whole thing out, (but it still was connected with my mouth, though.) I showed it to everyone, even my LEP teacher.
?ew,? she frowned.
?sn? that cool, Mrs. Ramsdale?? I asked her.
After LEP, my friends and I talked about my tooth again. I said, ?? proud of my tooth, especially this one.? My friends said, ?hat was sooooooooooooooooooo cool! It sticks right out!?
?eah!? I said. Then we walked into the Kindergarten classroom slowly. I saw my Kindergarten teacher, Miss Smit walked by, I said, ?ey Miss Smit! LOOK!? I stuck my tooth out and showed her how loose it was. She carried me in her arms. She said, ?old on.?
?uh?? I asked her. Her hands lift up in the air, touched my tooth, and then PULLLLLLLL!!!!!! She pulled my tooth right out.
?HHHH!!!! Blood? comin? out!!! NOOOOO!!!!!? I screamed.
?o blood,? Miss Smit said calmly. ?t should?e been pulled off long time ago.? I felt so funny! This is the first time ever my tooth has been pulled off WITHOUT BLOOD! I was daydreaming when one of my friends asked, ?s it really that surprising??
?robably,? I stopped daydreaming. ? don? know why I was so surprised.?
At home I told Dad all about it. ?hat was so surprising! It was weird, too!?
?o are you going to get a quarter from the Toothfairy?? my Dad asked me.

Toothfairy? I thought, A quarter from her! ?es!? I yelled. I? gonna be rich! I got a plastic little bag and put my tooth inside. I laughed. My tooth laughed, too.
? gonna get money from the Toothfairy, Toothfairy, Toothfairy? Money O? money and Toothfairy, Toothfairy gives me some money!? I sang as I put the bag under my soft pillow.
The next day, I checked my pillow. I shouted, ? QUARTER! YAY! YAY!? I kept the quarter in my piggy bank. I jump up and down in my bedroom.
I smiled. If every loose tooth ended up like this, it would be perfect!



The End
