二娃等了好几天,那颗松动的牙并无离他而去的意思。小家伙没了耐心,同意拔牙。经验丰富的老爸右手受伤不能亲自上阵,老妈只好硬着心肠手持牙线战战兢兢上场了。
老妈刚把牙线往小牙上一套,正准备发问下一步如何行动,手就被老爸一拍,牙应声而落。当时老妈就对老爸送去一个佩服的媚眼:“还是你行,稳、准、狠!”
二娃拾起平生掉的第一颗牙,洗净、擦干、给家里每个人过目后小心放到枕头下,等着牙仙来买。
第二天一早,两儿子自己弄好早餐坐在厨房里吃得正欢。忽然,老二跳下高脚凳,直冲楼上去。老妈见状顿悟:糟了!忘了往枕头下塞钱了!可怜的老二要失望惨了!
果然,二娃静悄悄地下来,继续吃早餐,只字不提牙仙的事。老妈忍不住,装模作样地问:“对了,二娃,牙仙买你的牙了吗?”“没有,她没来。”“哦?怎么回事呢?”“可能是我的头太重了,她挤不进来。今天晚上我不睡枕头了。”
真是个善良的儿子,老妈心里更内疚了。嘱咐老爸:“今晚可不能再忘了。上班顺便问问老美,他们如何处理这种情况。”
老爸下班一到家就偷偷摸摸地给老妈看信:“这是牙仙写给二娃的信,上面还有地址和牙齿图案邮票。”“这就是老美的伎俩??”老妈真服了。“是啊,我一说这事儿,办公室的人就行动起来,在网上找牙仙的出处,苦想缺席的理由,最后由秘书执笔,写了这封信给二娃。”“没想到小小一颗牙牵动众人心啊。”老妈感叹:“难怪有个新闻说一老师告诉学生圣诞老人是假的,被学校开除了。有大人们爱心的呵护,这里的孩子真的能活在自己的童话世界里很久呢。”

My dear little buddy Tyler,
I missed your pillow last night! I hope you are not too disappointed with me. The tooth fairy can't fly in the rain, I can't get my wings wet.
Losing your first tooth is very exciting. Please awake this morning to a special treat and a smile on your face.
I'll see you again Tyler for your next tooth.
Have a wonderful day,
The tooth fairy
