Montana Tooth Pull

This is how we pull teeth in Montana!

Calvin's front tooth was loose for what seemed like months. It hung on and was getting to be troublesome for Calvin when eating. Jay and Calvin talked about ways they could help the tooth along. Calvin has a recurve bow that he's been learning to shoot. Together, they decided to try it out. Ultimately, it was Calvin's decision. This was actually his third try though. The tooth was ready, but we had to do some experimenting to get the string to hold. When the tooth came out, it was flung into the grass. Jay and Calvin searched and searched, but couldn't find it. An hour later, Calvin's brother, Amos, came running inside, tooth in hand. "I found the tooth!" he said. It has been fun for the whole family.
