This blog is a record of our daily life ... the joys and struggles of raising our little flock to love life and the author of life, our Lord. There are many similarities between Christ's followers and a flock of sheep, thus the name of this blog. I'm trying to 'shepherd' my little flock to know and love Christ - this is my vocation.

More Metal
Another child in our house has become 'metaled' in a more visible way. Angelina had an expander placed this summer and yesterday, the braces were applied. She chose hot pink and blue bands. We arrived home around 8:30p last night and the boys were all excited to see her. She was tired from the day and not much into show-and-tell, so she just went up to bed - to the disappointment of her brothers. This morning though, she and Dash dished about having braces and all the foods they aren't supposed to eat while wearing braces (and probably trying to figure out a way to still eat sticky, crunchy favorites even though I warned them it'd be a long trip into town with a mom who wouldn't be too happy if brackets were broken in carelessness). Graham and Zeke were equally excited to listen in on the conversation.

ReplyDeleteI gotta get my kiddos to the dentist....

ReplyDeleteI was really impressed with how well she did right after getting them put on! No complaining - just having fun here. Maybe Mr. Bean was pain numbing as well as brain numbing? ;) Her old ballet buds where admiring the pink and blue.
