Behold, A Pretzel Seed!

While snacking on some pretzels this morning, Hans came up to me holding a tiny object and said,"Mom, look, a pretzel seed! Have you ever had a seed in your pretzels before?" I looked a little more closely and realized it was his formerly loose tooth. When I told him it was in fact his tooth, not a pretzel seed, he was happily surprised. He smiled, showing a bloody mess of chewed up pretzels in the hole where the tooth used to be. Luckily he didn't swallow the tooth because the tooth fairy will most likely pay him a visit tonight if he/she remembers.
