Shiny, Pearly Whites

I lost a tooth today! It was my first one ever!! It fell out while dad and I were playing. He went and showed mom, who was all worried that I was hurt. She picked me up and tried to look in my mouth. NO WAY was I going to show either one of them where that tooth came from! They were going to have to give up a treat, maybe even two, for that privilege. No-sir-ee. My jaws stayed shut.
They kept oohing and aahing like they always do when it comes to me. Then dad got the bright idea to wash my tooth off in the sink because there was a little bit of blood on it.
Humans.
What do you THINK happened next? (Let me tell you, this is the same day dad dropped eggs at the grocery store AND my good food, the kind mom makes, all over the floor). HE DROPPED MY FIRST TOOTH DOWN THE SINK!
My memories, baby dna, all kinds of potential oohing and aahing, calcium, maybe even some future cavities, and whatever else is in teeth...all gone :( He tried to get it. Even took the top off of the sink with a screwdriver, but no luck. Only found little bits of food.
Good thing I have a whole mouth full of baby teeth and they're all going to fall out.
Maybe next time they'll be more careful.
Hmph.
Humans.
