Everyone is saying that Vidushmath and I have become taller.  May be true as our dresses are tight and short to wear.

oh man! i lost tooth

oh man! i lost tooth

I don't remember when, may be a month back I was complaining everyone for a couple of days that one tooth had started shaking.  I was told a new tooth will grow in place of the present one.  Somehow I lost interest in that and I forgot about shaking tooth.

This evening while I was eating banana the tooth fell down and I started crying for some minutes.  I am happy I will get a new tooth in a month's time.  Yet, elders say, I have to be ready for more teeth falling.
