H, last week mom and I went to your school a few minutes before standard pickup time.

See, we came to watch your STEM Club do a little presentation in the form of a parade.

You took these little electric cars, designed floats on top of them, and did your own little Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade down between all of the parents lining the hallway.

It was cute and you smiled so big when you saw we were there.

But here is the thing.

The entire parade you were smiling with a big pair of fake teeth in your mouth.

They were the big white vampire teeth you sometimes see thrown in with a pile of Halloween candy.

I knew they were vampire teeth. Mom knew they were vampire teeth. Everyone knows they are vampire teeth.

We congratulated you when you got to the end of the hallway with both adulation and hugs and kisses.

Finally we asked: “Whatcha got there?”

You said:

Tiger Teeth

Now I don’t know which principal or teacher told you they were tiger teeth, but you have got to love private Christian schools.

Ha!

I love you.
