She's just that Brave

There is something about the fall that makes me want to tie up all loose ends. You know, finish off the To-Do list, clean the yard, pack away the summer toys, get the family in for physicals, and make sure everyone has seen the dentist. All that kind of stuff.

The past couple of weeks have been all about Teeth. Abby has been the hardest hit this year with several cavities. How many you ask? More then one - let's just leave it at that. It has been a lesson to John and I that when you ask your kid to brush their teeth and they say "I did!" ...don't believe em. :) That said Abby was one tough little cookie as the Dentist worked on her little mouth.
When he was all finished, and as we were getting into the van, I told Abby how proud of her I was. I even said that the Dr thought she was the Bravest patient EVER! To that Abby smiled and calmly replied,
'Yeah I was brave. I was braver then an ostrich...before...it gets shot!"



I couldn't disagree with that. ...I don't think?

Terry & I had a nice little chuckle over that one. Way to go Abby on being so brave. (and tell your Mom she needs to "shine" your teeth EVERY night regardless of whether you say you've done it or not!)

Too cute! Kids say the funniest things. Hey -- I hear you're a twilight fan? I was talking to Amber Walters and we're thinking a girls night on the 21st... You in?

Ostrich??? Abby seems to come up with some strange animals, and the fact that it is going to get SHOT!! Very funny though. Good for her for being so brave!!!
