If you are eight, and you are eating an apple,

and you see a pink spot in your apple,

and you feel something hard like a seed in your mouth,

it’s probably your loose tooth that just came out.

(I’ve always heard the apple theory of loose-tooth removal, but this is the first time I’ve witnessed it — and she wasn’t even trying to test the theory.)

(P.S. If you’re a grownup,

and you’re squeamish about loose teeth or blood in apples,

and you were just eating breakfast,

I hope you’ll accept my apologies.)
