Tucker has had a loose tooth for months, that just would NOT come out. It even had a little help a few weeks ago, when the cattle gate swung & hit him dead in the mouth. He wiggled & wiggled & it just would not give enough to be pulled. Lucky for Tucker, my uncle is a dentist & when he heard Tucker had a loose tooth he graciously volunteered to pull it. My little Tucker boy was sooo excited! No tears, no hesitation . . .
Just a toothless boy that couldn’t be happier! I sure am gonna miss that little gap b/t his 2 front teeth.
Our last night in TN was spent in the ER . . .
The boys were having a pillow fight & suddenly I heard Trevor screaming a deep hurt cry. You know, the cry that make you jump & run QUICK! As a mom of 4 boys, I don’t typically react to cries with much haste, but I knew something was wrong. As I headed downstairs I met the other kids who let me know “Trevor was hurt”. Usually, my kids give me some kind of forewarning to prepare me for the kind of injury I’m about to face. When I reached the bottom of the stairs I realized I had not received near enough warning to prepare me to find Trevor laying on his back in a puddle of blood. YIKES!!!
. . . 5 Stitches later . . .
This boy is one tough hombre! He definitely gave off a whaling cry initially, but his composer in the ER was amazing. I was so proud of him. A few tears & moaning was all there was as he bravely aloud the doctor to numb the wound in prep for stitches. No screaming crying or freaking out – just one very brave little boy. My Sweet boy! I was so proud. & he was just as brave when his daddy took them out later.
Trev is by far our toughest outlaw!!
And just incase you are wondering, this is what the wall looked like:
