So, 2 out of 3 kids have inherited my
A couple of years ago, big brother endured his first phase of treatment in order to make room for permanent teeth to come in. At least he didn't have to get 7 permanent teeth pulled like I did in the second grade! Yikes.
Lincoln joyfully takes out all the hard, sticky Halloween candy he won't be able to eat while wearing braces. He's being such a great sport about it, but I think he's a little excited about getting because he'd watched Mullin getting the royal treatment at the orthodontist's office.
Dr. Larrabee and staff are amazing. I have to admit, I am even excited about Lincoln earning Larrabee Loot because Lincoln says he will turn it in for a Starbucks card and treat me to a frappuchino. :D!!!!!! How sweet is that?!
Since November is "being thankful month" I will end with a few things I am thankful for regarding teeth.
- I am truly thankful my parents, even though money was tight, let me get braces as a teen. I am almost certain I would have NEVER gotten married had my teeth remained as they were.
- I am thankful my husband has continued to spend money on my teeth and all their imperfections, or I probably wouldn't have any molars left in my mouth.
- I am thankful that, even though money is tight, God is providing for my kids who need orthodontic care.
- I am thankful that, so far, none of my children have had to get cavities filled. I think I'd already had about 10 by the time I was 12.
- I am thankful for Thieves. Best stuff I have ever used in my mouth! So glad my teeth aren't as sensitive as they used to be since using it. Glad it kept a cavity from spreading in Lincoln's mouth, and glad it is helping with his unexplainable tartar issue.
