Isaac's first loose tooth!!!


That's it!!! My baby, who is not really a baby anymore, is growing up. It is one of those life recognition moments.  A moment where you think, huh, where has the time gone and man, it sure needs to slow down...he is so excited though. Really, it feels like we just went through the pain and grumpiness of gaining those first baby teeth and now it is soon going to be replaced by an adult tooth. One that he will have, hopefully, until he is an old Great Grandpa himself. Strange how these little things are so big for us Moms. Isaac was eating dinner and said "My tooth hurts Mom!" My first thought was "Oh, no! Do we have ANOTHER cavity???" Isaac also gets cankers quite frequently and so I began to investigate and sure enough....to my surprise, was his first loose tooth. He is so excited about it though and his hopes are to make it on his teachers list for kids who have lost teeth during the school year. Apparently, she has a big poster and you get to take a picture and put up your name on the poster for all the class to see and keep track of who has lost teeth and how many throughout the year. Man, I tell you......everything a competition anymore!!! At least that is how these little first graders are taking it....well, here is to Isaac and his first loose tooth.
