Tooth fairy...part 2

Kylie lost her first tooth. Suprisingly enough, she didn't even flinch. I could not believe it!

So in the last two weeks, we have had 7 teeth lost. Geesh!

In addition, Jacob got braces two days ago. That night he broke a bracket so it was back to the orthodontist the next day.

Next week, we have the first round of dentist appointments for everyone.

Have you seen the advertisement for the Duggars? They are all going to the dentist and there is something like 317 teeth that will be looked at...

Sound familiar?

The tooth fairy

I think I have found my limit when it comes to taking care of my children.

Jacob, 16, had 6 teeth pulled today. 4 wisdom teeth and 2 permenant molars. They needed to do this to make more room on the bottom.

He will have braces put on in a couple of weeks and then in about a year and a half, he will have jaw surgery. Poor guy.

Anyway, I think I have found my limit, and that is blood from my children.

I just don't do well with it. My skin crawls and I almost feel sick. It is not that the sight of blood bothers me, when they skin their knees or if they have a bloody nose, or pick a scab, really nothing. But when I know there is pain associated with it, I can't handle it.

I am a wimp!!!
