I guess someone has to be the first to get a cavity.  Morgan is the winner!  Actually, I’m not 100% sure that’s accurate.  Those that know me would probably describe me as super detail oriented and I try to document every little thing that happens in my kids’ lives BUT I may be in over my head here.  Keeping accurate dental records is not my strong suit.  One thing I do remember is I took MoMo to the dentist Friday after school to get her supposed cavity filled.  I say ‘supposed’ because I’m not sure she really had one based on the conversations I had while her mouth was numbing.  The hygienist said she wouldn’t even call it a cavity…more of a stain of sorts that may turn into one.  Or maybe it’s just a super tiny one?  Or my assessment is that perhaps this is just a way for the dentist to make more money!?  Either way, I do not mess around with proper care of teeth (right Shauna!?).  She teases me because I’m obsessive over clean and pretty teeth.  Morgan actually sort of likes going to the dentist (maybe it’s an act because she likes the ice cream they hand out in the end!?)  Who’s brilliant idea is it anyway to coat your teeth with sugar after they have been professionally cleaned!?

Morgan is tough as nails.  They asked me if she needed Nitrous Oxide for anxiety.  I promptly said no because she rarely has anxiety about anything, ever! This girl just rolls with anything that comes her way.  She barely flinched and we were in and out of there in a flash.  I could learn a thing or two from Morgan because she is a champ at handling any situation.  We all have our strong points, and that is definitely one of hers!  However, I’m still hoping to keep my kids’cavities to a minimum…you know how I am about teeth 😉
