Snaggletooth

A few months ago, June to be exact…I brought home a surprise for Logan...some new crocs. She absolutely loves those ugly shoes. I was so excited to give them to her and she was wearing them all around the house. I was just about to leave to meet my mom for BINGO, when the worst thing could have happened…Logan fell while running and hit her mouth directly on a tile step. I saw it happen in slow motion and there was nothing I could do to stop it. When she started crying and saying, “my mouth…” I was panicked and my worst fear came true. Her front tooth was bleeding and pushed back. I tried to pull it forward and it wouldn’t budge. After having my husband blame me for letting her wear shoes that were too big…as if I didn’t feel guilty enough. I finally talked to the dentist and he reassured me that he gets one call a week for the same thing. He said it probably wouldn’t fall out, but was just going to turn gray…which it did. It looked weird for a few weeks and it slowly started to turn a shade of gray. Eventually it seemed to move back up even with the other tooth, but is still discolored. I was very upset at first, but now, I am used to it, and it looks cute when she smiles. I guess that is the only thing on Logan that resembles me…since I had a gray tooth as a toddler. I suppose she gets her gracefulness from me too.
