Hi, I’m Tilly. I’m a puppy, ball chaser, shoe chewer, and proud owner of one wobbly front tooth.
I didn’t think much about it. It just felt strange, loose, annoying, always in the way. Until it came out. And everything changed.
At first, I panicked. I thought I broke something. I thought I was broken.
But my human smiled and said, “It’s okay, Tilly, it just means you’re growing.”
Funny how something falling out can mean you are stepping forward. Not all discomfort is danger. Sometimes, it’s just change knocking gently.
2. Letting Go Isn’t Losing, It’s Making Room
The space where the tooth had been felt empty at first.
But then, I noticed something new starting to form. A tiny edge. A stronger shape. I hadn’t lost something. I’d cleared space for something better.
We cling to things we’ve outgrown because they feel familiar. But real growth starts with release.
3. Small Moments Can Start Big Journeys
After the tooth came out, everything felt different. I explored more. I chewed less (well, a little less). I felt…braver.
One tiny shift opened a new chapter. The tooth wasn’t the end of anything. It was the beginning.
Even the smallest changes can change your direction.
Change doesn’t always arrive with fanfare.
Sometimes, it shows up as a wobble, a quiet shift, or something that falls away.
Because even a single lost tooth can be the start of something stronger.
