Wisdom Teeth OUT!

Yesterday morning, I was at the dentist office with A-mac who was getting her wisdom teeth pulled. Too funny....we ran into our old neighbor. She was there with her daughter who had just finished getting her wisdom teeth out. The was comforting to A-mac who kept on telling me she was going to die. I had to point out that A walked out on her own two feet. A-mac was still very anxious and in tears saying she wanted to go home. She even cried, "I want daddy." I told her if her dad brought her that we'd have to pick him up off the floor due to fainting. I was able to stay with her while they started the IV and then told her I'd see her in a bit. Not even 2 minutes after I left the room, the nurse came out said A-mac is calm and they have started the procedure. IV drugs are doin their thing. She doesn't remember any of it. 45 minutes later...Done! She was up and texting her ice cream order to Big D. Oh, BTW...they gave her wisdom teeth in a bag as a souvenir. She was sore the first day and took Tylenol with coedine and iced her cheeks 20 min on and 20 min off every hour. She woke up today a little swollen and now managing her discomfort with Advil. A-mac has even admitted that she made it out to be much worse than it really was.
