Ahem. Friends and family, there truly are Christmas miracles. BEHOLD!
Before
(I feel that this photo of my mom and me particularly showcases the ghetto-ness of my formerly crooked teeth. )
During
My final night of braces....
AFTER!
It's a Christmas miracle!! I went in to the orthodontist and he said, "How do you feel about your teeth?"
"...Good. There are a couple of things that aren't completely perfect. Is that going to be a problem?"
"Well, I could keep the braces on for another month and tweak things, if you like...."
"TAKE 'EM OFF! TAKE 'EM OFF!"
I was just so excited! Then he informed me that I have to wear a retainer 24 hours a day for the next year.
I'm not so excited about that part. (Make sure you read that sentence with a spitty voice, since I now have the wonderful retainer lisp.) *Sigh* The sacrifices we make for self-improvement....
