Tis the Season for Toothless Smiles!

When I got home Wednesday night from my staff meeting, Carissa met me at the door. "MOM, MOM... I have a LOOSE tooth!!!!" I looked in her mouth to see and sure enough! Not only a loose tooth, but the adult tooth had already popped through the gum *BEHIND* the still present baby tooth. Yes, I see braces in her future....

Dinner produced tears from biting and chewing. As we all sat around that evening watching a short show as a family she triumphantly said, "MOM! I pulled my tooth!"

And she had!
