Lost Tooth


Monday night Princess Izzybee was running down to the neighbors house to play night games when she tripped and fell on the sidewalk and knocked out her tooth. Our sweet neighbor carried her home as Princess Izzybee cried and bleed. Luckily for me Aunt Tiffi was visiting and she's a nurse because I don't do well with blood. Randy went and found the tooth and Nurse Tiffi helped Princess Izzybee clean up but we weren't sure if the tooth had been completely knocked out or if fragments remained. She slept with a cold wash cloth in her mouth all night and first thing yesterday morning I made a dentist appointment for her.

The denist xrayed her mouth (the worst part of the short visit) and said all the tooth was out and she was fine. Princess Izzybee is a little behind in losing teeth and this tooth wasn't ready to come out so he said the new tooth probably would grow in for another two years. We could have a fake white tooth made for her and she could just keep her toothless grin. At this point Princess Izzybee wants the toothless grin because she hates going to the dentist.

I'm just happy everything is okay. It's hard to see your kids in pain and wonder if they are okay. I know this was a little thing but I sure hated seeing her so upset Monday night.
