Such an unusual story, Sue. True? Fiction? Little boys! I had/have one. I confess, when I first saw the photo here, I instantly smelled that sweet, sweaty little boy smell. Not unlike puppies' breath. It made me wistful. My boy is 61, now, and is still my little boy. He grew into a fine man. In spite of his mother. Thanks for this evocative little tale.
This story is totally true. Val and I took her kids to the little park near her home and I met this little boy who regaled me with this harrowing tale while his sister defied gravity. And yes, he was absolutely toothless. I was lucky to find this photo on Unsplash. It almost looks like him.
