Explanation about Ben's crying

I've been corrected. If you haven't read the blog post called Nanny McPhee yet, go read that one before you read this. Ok, back to the correction- remember how I said Ben was crying because Addie not taking her tooth out was prohibiting him from getting ice cream? Well, I've been corrected and reminded of what the real reason was.
It went something like this:
Brian: Addie, if you take your tooth out we can go get ice cream for dessert.
Addie: No way.
Brian: Really, Addie, you can pick Friendly's or Sweet Lucy's or Temptations. Your choice. Just pull your tooth out.
Addie: Not gonna happen.
Brian: Addie, if you just pull your tooth out we can go to Disney World.
Addie: Nuh uh, no way.
Brian: Not Disney or ice cream will make you take your tooth out?
Addie: Right.

So Ben was sobbing hysterically about not being able to go to Disney.
Once the sling-shot-heard-round-the-Volvo happened, Ben immediately stopped crying and said, "Yay! When are we going to Disney now?"
Uh oh. Daddy needs to be careful what he bribes with, right?!?!
