OUCH! That's Gotta Hurt!!

Em had a little accident at the pool yesterday. She was playing in the kiddie pool with Willy, and she went down too hard. She hit the bottom of the pool and broke a front tooth. Poor kid! So, we are going to the dentist today to begin the process of having it capped. She was pretty upset at first, but when some of the lifeguards showed their capped teeth, she was comforted. I told her that she will just have to endure looking like Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel until it's fixed :) But that this wasn't a tragedy. And she wont look like this permanently. ETA--she got the tooth covered with a type of glue so that it won't be as sensitive. But she has to wait 3 weeks to have it fixed in order to see of the tooth is going to need a root canal or not.

OHHH! Poor Em! I jumped when I saw the photo! She's still beautiful, but I'm sure she can't wait to get it capped. They do such awesome work, no one will ever know!
