Charlie Lost His Front Tooth!

Charlie was brave enough to let Brian pull out his front tooth after church last Sunday. Since his brother made it into the paper, we made up a special newspaper just for him called the Duprasville Times (I've got a pdf of it if you want to see it). The following is the article we wrote about his brave feat:

Brave 5-year-old Boy Lets Father Pull Out Tooth
Louisville — Charlie Dupras, 5, had a wobbly tooth for a few weeks. It was starting to get in the way of his eating so his father, Brian Dupras, 33, offered to pull it out for him.
At first, he was scared and didn’t want him to do it, but he decided that after church, he would pull it out.
“I was scared, and I wanted it to come out. I was that,” Charlie said.
Charlie tried to pull it out but his fingers would just slip off the tooth
“When he [Brian] was pulling it out, it hurted (sic) a little but he thought it wouldn’t,” Charlie said.
Sunday afternoon, after church, Charlie and his father, Brian went up to the bedroom to pull out his tooth. Charlie was very brave and allowed Brian to try to pull it out with his fingers, but they slipped. After trying a few times, Brian finally got the tooth out with a cotton gauze.
“Certainly Charlie showed a incredible degree of bravery,” said Brian. “and I thought it was really cool that he trusted me enough to let me pull it out for him, even though it was a little scary.”
Charlie is looking forward to what the Tooth Fairy will bring as he sleeps tonight in his bed.
This is the third tooth that Charlie has lost.
