Missing Tooth Explanation

Max lost his first tooth about 4 months ago.  It took quite a while for the second tooth to become loose, but we knew it was dangerously close.  When we dropped off Max with grandma we had a sneaky suspicion that we might come back to see Max with another tooth lost.  The funny thing was that when we came back to pick up the kids, Max's tooth was indeed gone, but Max didn't even know it was missing.  
I asked him where it went, he said he didn't know.  Then grandma explained that they had corn on the cob for lunch.  Max ate his tooth.
He drew this picture explaining how he swallowed the tooth, it was now in his stomach.  The tooth fairy understood and rewarded him for a job well done.
