Toothless Moe

Actually I should say toothless Morgan... because she has finally finally lost one of her front teeth and she has a big ole gap in her mouth now... I knew it was coming but truthfully I really wasn't prepared enough for the impact of her loosing that one little tooth.  A sign that she is most definitely heading into big kid category and away from my sweet little baby. Okay not baby but little girl anyway.  For a day or two she was most definitely a snaggle tooth and refused to smile showing her teeth and finally I guess she and Darren made a deal that if he could pull it out she could have 100 marshmallows.. At dinner that night she sat and thought about it and finally turned to Darren and told him he could pull it.  Of course I don't think she realized that eating marshmallows right after pulling a tooth would be so unpleasant as of course the sugar was quite painful on that exposed area of her gum.  Needless to say that it ended up with just one marshmallow (much to my relief, her dentist's relief and I'm sure her teeth's relief).  Anyway here she is miss Toothless Moe

definitely beautiful Moe!! Morgan loogs so beautiful... is there a tooth fairy that provides some sustenance, other than sugar?

in the meantime, me, at the other end of the life span, have two major gaps in my mouth, lower left and lower right jaw, in the middle of implant processes... very difficult to eat, most effective diet i've ever been on...

Happy Halloween, y'all, i expect some sort of photographic record of the goings on...
