Open Wide!

Last Wednesday, John, Emma, and I all went into the dentist. Emma didn't have her teeth cleaned; I just took her in to get her familiar with the dentist. She wasn't very cooperative though and barely opened her mouth. Hopefully the dentist will get a better look at her next appointment in December.


John, on the other hand, was a big boy. While the dentist was looking at Emma's teeth, John went into another room with another assistant - without me! What a big boy! He got to wear some cool sunglasses to keep the bright light out of his eyes, and he did a great job. I'm so proud of him...even if he does have a cavity. Now I need to make an appointment at a pediatric dentist, so he can get it filled. I'm sure that won't go quite so well, but I'm praying that it does!


Since his appointment, John's letting me do a better job brushing his teeth (and even flossing) since we say we're playing dentist.
