How to loose your teeth really fast

This morning when Elias just woke up, he asked Wim for a clean handkerchief cause he was going to pull out a new loose tooth.
It's the third loose tooth, he already pulled out two of them.
The first one was hard labor - weeks of wiggling and being afraid of it falling out.
The second one was a lot easier - go to the bathroom and pull out that wiggly thing.
This third one is .... well, different.
He apparently was trying for a while and came back to our bathroom complaining that he couldn't get it out, that it was bleeding a bit and that we should pull it out for him.
No problem ... Wim took the handkerchief and tried to pull.... only to realize .... it wasn't even very loose.
Ok, if you really tried you could get it to wiggle a bit! WAY too soon to be pulling this one out.
Elias was very disappointed and asked for a little rope to pull it out (which we didn't give of course - trying to explain that tooth wasn't yet ready to be pulled).

We are now watching him carefully - making sure he doesn't get a hold of a hammer or so ;-)
