Things are RAPIDLY Moving!

I am sure you took note of the fact that I typed "rapidly" in all caps and that is because my teeth have done some major moving in just the last few days. I notice a change everyday in my bite and the spaces between my teeth. You also may have noticed that I am posting a lot lately. That is because the progress that I have seen is progress that I only ever dreamed of until now! Do I seem a bit over dramatic? I suppose to some it seems that way. But for me this has been a long journey of pain and lack of confidence. I have been waiting until I could afford it and now waiting for it to show. I held myself back a lot during this journey even before braces. This all began when I was in middle school 13 or 14 years old and I never felt beautiful or worthy. No one ever made me feel that way. I myself did that because of how I viewed myself in the mirror. I am sure some would say that is a bit shallow and if I truly didn't understand I would probably agree! Accept I do understand. When a small child comes up to you and asks you if your teeth are broken or tell you they are ugly it hurts. I never got angry at a child over this because I know they don't understand but it was confirmation that I wasn't the only one who saw my teeth as ugly. I have had peers make comments and even had adults make comments. It hurt me when people would ask me to smile so they could see my snaggle tooth. To truly understand what I had gone through you would have to be in my shoes. All I can do is say that seeing my teeth change before my eyes for the better makes me feel like I have never felt before is that confidence? Maybe? I hope so. :) But before I bring myself to full on tears of happiness I will post a picture of my teeth today! I want to thank you for reading my rambling heart filled post it truly came from my heart.
