In November of 2007 Kyle took Kelsie and Jaron to a sport store to just look around and kill some time. Kelsie was two an half , Jaron was four almost five. As they were walking around the store Kelsie tripped over a basketball standard (the ones that feet poking out so they can stand up). When she fell she knocked her mouth really good (fat lip bleeding and a wiggly tooth front tooth). We were hoping that the tooth would firm back up in the gums and all would be good. Over time (about three weeks) her tooth started to change color. We knew that it was dying and it was going to have to be pulled. I was hoping that it would hold out until after my sister Alycia's wedding. It did. But the following Monday after the wedding we pulled the tooth...and ever since then she has been without her tooth. Fast forward four and half years...
Last Tuesday as I was preparing dinner. Kelsie saw that I was making corn on the cob. She was so excited. She showed me how much her front tooth was wiggling and was excited that her tooth would have a way out in this dinner. She attempted many tries in trying to eat the corn. But had to stop each time as it would give her pain as she bit into it. She left the table many times to go check out her tooth to see if it was coming out. Kyle told her to leave it alone and that he could cut her corn off the cob for her to eat. But she refused and was determine to have that tooth come out that night. She left to the bathroom once more...
Ten minutes later she ran out with such excitement and very toothless grin. Ready to show us all that she has finally lost both her front teeth. I never thought that day would come, but it did (means she is growing up too.) And she was so excited for the tooth fairy to come and get the tooth.
