Don't worry they're just the training wheels....




That's what the dentist said to me this week when he told us Emma's two front teeth needed to be removed after a fall. As the dental hygienist was fluttering around with toys and new toothbrushes, filling bags with stickers to entertain the girls... Emma just sat there quietly and politely while we got the news. UGH is all I felt in my stomach but then the comforting words... "They're just the training wheels" the Pediatric Dentist said "Don't worry Mom, she'll get more teeth in about 6-7 years.

So now beautiful little bright eyed Emma is just as beautiful but with a few less teeth. I am happy to report the Tooth Fairy came that night and Emma was surprised and happy to receive money under her pillow the next morning... Although Laila was NOT!!! ; )
