Dental emergency
Emery fell last weekend and knocked her front teeth in. It was kind of a freak accident because she barely fell forward on a plastic toy. We were expecting her to brush it off, but she kept screaming and screaming. I thought she was just tired so I went to give her some milk and put her to bed. Every time she went to drink her milk she screamed in agony. I finally got a look in her mouth and was horrified to see her teeth pushed back and bleeding. It was 7pm Friday night of labor day weekend, so we had quite the fiasco trying to find an available dentist/doctor. Wade gave her a blessing and she finally calmed down though. The next day her swelling and bruising was terrible though so we decided to take her in. The dentist gave her some antibiotics and told us her teeth would stay there in a scissor bite until they fell out when she gets older. Miraculously, her teeth have pretty much moved back (still a little crooked) to normal. She was a tough girl through it all.
