Just our luck...

Poor little Caleb. He fell at church last night. Same fall as a million other times, at least that how it seemed at first. Then we saw blood and thought, uh oh, he busted his lip. Then we saw that half of his front tooth was missing. Just as we saw the broken tooth in his mouth...he swallowed it. He already had a little gap between his front two teeth (they haven't even come in all the way yet), but now with a piece missing, it looks a little bigger. Poor little guy. He calmed down quicker than I did, but he couldn't stop feeling the broken tooth with his tongue. It left quite a sharp point, but our neighbor (who thankfully just happens to be a dentist) says that he thinks it will dull down on it's own, and that the trauma/noise involved in filing it would be much worse. Once the tooth comes in all the way we can go from there to decide what to do next... Until then, we have a littel snaggletooth. We are very thankful that his tooth seems okay, and the only damage seems to be cosmetic and not very involved.
