Jozen was excited to share the news with his cousins, who had come to visit.
"My tooth fell out!" he exclaimed.
His cousins were intrigued, and a lively conversation started.
"A tooth fairy will bring you money!" one cousin said.
"No, it's a mouse that brings the money!" another argued.
"You're both wrong, it's a bunny!" a third cousin chimed in.
Jozen's mother walked into the room, noticing the hot conversation. "Okay, everyone, settle down," she said, calming the group. "I see Jozen has shared his exciting news. And it seems you all have some ideas about what happens next."
One cousin piped up again, "It's a bunny, Auntie!"
Jozen's mother smiled. "Thank you all for sharing your thoughts. But let me tell you something even more amazing. When we lose a tooth, it's a sign that we're growing up."
The children looked at her with wonder.
"God designed our bodies to grow and change," she explained. "He planned for us to lose our baby teeth and grow stronger, bigger teeth. It's all part of His incredible plan for our bodies"
Jozen's mother continued, "Instead of focusing on who might bring us money right now, let us thank God for helping Jozen grow."
The children nodded.
“So, who is going to give Jozen some money, Auntie?” one cousin asked, still wanting to know the correct answer.
Jozen’s mother smiled again as she replied. "All of you will ask your parents about who will bring you some money when you lose a tooth, when you go home. As for Jozen, well, that's a little secret for our family."
Later that night, as Jozen was getting ready for bed, he asked his mother, "Mummy, who will bring me some money for my tooth?"
His mother looked at him with gladness in her eyes. "Well, my little prince, I have some good news for you. God's angel told me about your tooth, and also provided some money to celebrate this special moment of your growth."
Together, they looked on the shelf where Jozen had placed his tooth, and behold, there were three coins waiting for him.
The End!
