Golden Tooth

Just a quick note today about Kate.

Yesterday I took her to the dentist to get some cavities filled. I honestly didn't realize one of the cavities was as bad as it was; I'd been paying more attention to a smaller one on the bottom teeth. So because the cavity was so deep, she ended up getting a baby root canal and cap on the tooth. She was ultra brave and had no idea shots had been involved whatsoever. I told her that she was getting a "robot tooth" and she said, "Yes! I ALWAYS wanted a 'golden' tooth!" LOL!! I'm so glad I could make her dream come true. I'm also so glad that there are enough bad moms out there (right along side myself), that 'golden teeth' are a fad these days.

:( Sounds like she was a trooper! Why can't dentists do that good of a job with adults?

Oh, no! We just got back from the densit...taylor had zero cavities, and tanner had four, possibly five. We are getting them filled in two weeks. *sigh*

And it really is just a silver cap on the tooth, but I love how she calls it her "golden tooth". Funny girl.

Oh man she was brave! My knees would be shaking if I thought I had to get a root canal.

And the Gold Tooth - Ha! Love it!
