A couple of months ago Tydon started to complain that his tooth was bothering him. I began the process of finding a new dentist. After making a few phone calls and putting my dad to work, we had a few names of dentists in the area to try. The next week I went to find my important paper and you guessed it, I miss placed it. We were back to square one. My dad gave us the cell phone of a family friend and local orthodontist to contact, again, and so we were going to start over. I turned that job over to Heath ... and the phone call never was made. A few weeks later we received new dental insurance cards in the mail. This time I was glad we hadn't followed up with the orthodontist cause now all of our providers had changed. Anyways, Tydon had quit complaining by this time about his tooth and I just kind of put it off. (I Know, what was I thinking!) Last week he started to complain again, and the pain just kept getting worse. Today, I found a dentist and took him right in. The poor kid had to have a "BABY" root canal. I felt horrible that I had waited so long and I don't deserve the "Mother of the Year" Award for this dental disaster!
Tydon is feeling much better!! I fed him chicken noodle soup and a cinnamon roll for lunch , since I felt so bad. His numbness is starting to wear off and he just told me his tooth is feeling amazing! He is up and playing and can't wait for his 2nd soccer game tonight.
What a BRAVE kid - I love you Tydon!

Way to be brave Ty! That's so sad but don't put yourself out of the Mother of the Year award yet! You are great!! love you and can't wait to see everyone!!
Poor Guy! His picture looks so sweet. I hope he had a great soccer game to make him forget the dentist.
At least you were there to take care of him, that's what's most important. So, you're definitely still in the running for the "Mother of the Year" award. :)
