Monumental Monday Morning Moment

Our Monday began with a monumental moment for us. We took Grace to the dentist to have two of her baby teeth pulled. Her first permanent tooth came up over a month ago with nowhere to go, so the baby teeth had to get a little “help” from the dentist.

Below is the before picture - one last chance to capture her baby tooth smile :(

Grace was a champion, no crying or complaining. She was so strong and handled it better than Chris and I for sure!

I wasn’t emotional about it at all until I got home and realized that the two teeth that were pulled were her first two she ever had. All parents out there remember how excited you are with the appearance of the first tooth. Now only a few short years later, the symbolic and so anticipated first teeth are gone and the adult teeth are coming in.

So, onward we go, with the hopes that the rest of her teeth come out a bit more naturally!!

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
