Caleb vs. The Curb

On the way into the library today, Caleb tripped and fell mouth first into the curb. I shudder thinking back about it. When I got to him, there was blood everywhere and I couldn't really tell what was bleeding. Then I saw the tooth...root and all. It was awful!

Thankfully our dentist was able to see Caleb right away and determined by xray that his permanent teeth were safe. He also didn't need any stitches in his lip. There is no need to do anything because he will start losing his baby teeth in a year or so anyway. It was the best case scenario, really. On a positive note, he is excited that the tooth fairy is coming to see him tonight:)

Levi is 6 and has still never lost a tooth. He is extremely jealous that now Caleb has a tooth missing. I heard him ask Caleb if he could see the hole in his mouth and then said that he wished the tooth fairy was going to come see him. Caleb said, "You just have to run and fall on the curb and then your tooth will come out!"
