~Uhm, one of my wires kept on moving out of place aaaannnd I don't know what this thingy is called right here [pointed to back right lower molar, there is a blue band there] but it fell off.
Is it starting to just feel normal having them now?
~Yup - can't even feel them.
Do you miss chewing gum?
~No... I have a lot of sugar free gum and it tastes the same. My advice to people with braces? Get Stride. [fyi-when you have braces, no gum with sugar]
Are you a little nervous about starting school in a few days?
~Very excited actually, I miss everybody.
But what about your braces maint in school?
~Gonna be hard, hopefully Kate gets them soon so me and her [my daughter is grammatically challenged] can both go to the bathroom to see if we have food in our teeth.
Not just to see if there is food, but to BRUSH TOO RIGHT??
~Depends...
On what?
~On everything.
No. On what?
~I don't know if... if it takes a lot of time. Not to mention, I don't want to look dorky. [She then made a motion of brushing her teeth and a VERY DORKY noise.]
Something kind of big happened last week, do you want to talk about it?
~No
Why not?
~Cuz. Hold on... [texting]
That's cool, I'll just sit here and wait for you to text...
~I guess I'll tell you.
I already know.. you're telling THE WORLD...
~Uhm my friend called me.
You're friend?
~My friend from third grade.
That's it?!?
~hehehe no...
What else?
~I don't know what to say... He called.
WHO IS HE??
~His name is Cody. He called me and I messed up. And this is all my moms fault. Cuz we should have caller ID but we don't. So I thought I had his number and I said, "I'll call you or text you back!" [said VERY girly and high pitched]
SO how exactly is that your mom's fault?
~We should have caller ID and then I would have his number.
Yeah, as opposed to actually ASKING for it...
~That takes too long and I was too busy hyperventilating.
Did you tell him that you have braces?
~Nope, I left that part out.
Are you nervous about seeing him if he does start school here?
~VERY.
Any advice or words of wisdom you want to pass onto other kids that are about to get braces?
~[texting] No not really. It sucks... but I guess that how it's supposed to be. Oh and I hope you don't get them.
Before her two month appt. Look at how much straighter they are! That snaggley tooth is finally getting pulled back into place.
