Poor Miss G!!

Remember this??

Some of you thought it was a sharks tooth!!  Crikey but you blokes are hilarious.  Well it wasn't a sharks tooth but it was a tooth.  Miss G's tooth!!  Oh my ..... here's what happened ...

On the way home from the beach and the BEST MOTHER'S DAY EVER there was an incident!!  Not unusual in our Jen's car with those three little girls but this incident was a bit terrifying to say the least.  Miss G and Josie, the eldest and most sensible, sit together.  Miss Izzi sits way up the back because she's a trouble maker. Ok she's lovely and we love her to bits but she's the midddle one and a bit tricky sometimes. Anyway Miss G was on a bit of a high and was trying to bite Jo's arm. Jo told her to bite on her shirt instead. Well you don't have to ask Miss G to bite more than once. She sank her choppers into Miss Jo's shirt. Jo pulled away and before anyone knew what was happening their was a blood curdling scream from Miss G and a lot of blood was pouring out her mouth.  Her tooth had somehow got caught in Jo's, obviously very well made shirt, and when Jo pulled away the tooth was extracted. Fully in tact!!  OMD!!  Wouldn't that hurt!!  I don't even like getting my teeth cleaned let alone pulled out by the roots with no anaesthetic or anything. Not even a needle. Even a whisky would help, aye??  Before they could stop the car Miss Izzi had got out of her car seat and was hugging Miss G and yelling 'I don't want her to die ...... I don't want her to die' and Miss Jo was an hysterical mess. Miss G was the quietest of them all, after the initial blood curdling scream. Gotta say It's just as well it wasn't Jo's tooth. She's our drama Queen.  You'd have heard the screams up over if it were her. Our Jen felt sick and didn't quite know what to do.  She and her hubby did what they could to calm every one down, mop up the blood and comfort Miss G while Miss Jo searched for the tooth.  She finally found it and no-one could believe it had come out like that. It wasn't loose. She's only 3 for goodness sake. She's not supposed to lose those teeth till she's about 6 or something.  They finally all calmed down enough to get home. They had called a Doctor to come to the house but after waiting 3 hours decided to forget him and take G to the dentist the next day to make sure everything was alright.  Miss G was obviously in shock. She wouldn't swallow at all. She wouldn't talk and that's amazing for her. She NEVER shuts up. She wouldn't eat and she was VERY tired from the big day. She fell asleep in her Mummy's arms and slept right through the night. When she woke up she still wouldn't talk or eat or swallow her saliva but she did have a few little drinks of water. Poor Miss G!!

Her Mum took her to the dentist. The quietest car trip she'd ever taken with Miss G. She still wasn't talking. Just the odd grunt here or there. She's been to the dentist before with her sisters but she wouldn't let the Dentist touch her. She wouldn't even sit in the chair but this time she did EVERYTHING the dentist asked of her.

What a good girl. He was amazed!!  He said in all of his years in dentistry he had NEVER seen anything like it. A Whole tooth pulled out intact with no damage to it or the teeth beside it.  He assured Jen Miss G would be alright and the new tooth would come down all in good time, albeit in several years time.  He told Jen it would be VERY painful and to keep giving her pain medication. 'What??' said Jen.  I haven't given her ANY pain medication. 'WHAT' said the dentist??  OMD!! 'but that's one tough little kid'. They came to our house after the Dentist. Mum and our Jen sat and talked and talked. I think our Jen needed a bit of calming down. Pop Pop took care of Miss G. He told her stories and played silly games with her and after a little while we heard some giggles and after about half an hour he had her talking. Thank goodness!!  It was nice while it lasted but a silent Miss G just wasn't right. Thank goodness for Pop Pop, aye??

Ok so the hats silly. He doesn't wear it usually. But it did make Miss G giggle.

The tooth fairy came last night and that sure put a smile on the little face.  She's a lot better today. She had some brekky ..... mashed potato and icecream!!  Mashed potato and ICECREAM for brekky!!!!!  How good is that?  I might just have to go and have a bite of Miss Jo's shirt.

What an end to the best Mothers' day ever, aye??

Wanna run ... Love, Charlie.
