Savea's new smile

Savea has a new smile! About a month and a half ago he was at the gym with Seth when another boy decided to land on his face with his feet in the foam pit. I didn't see it but from what the other coaches said they were quite surprised that it didn't knock Vea out. Well, about 2 weeks ago we noticed that his front baby tooth started turning black. His gums around the tooth were also really infected. So I took him into the dentist and sure enough, the impact of that kids foot caused Vea's tooth to die. So the dentist pulled it along with the tooth next to it just in case the other tooth started to die as well. Vea was so brave. He had multiple shots in the mouth and could feel the pressure of them pulling it. We are so proud of how brave he was. He earned a smoothie afterwards.

Wow...Savea you are very brave. I'm glad that you had your shoobie. You may have to wait awhile before you eat corn on the cob. What an awesome smile. Be careful at the gym. Love you Vea...
