Steadfast and Immovable....until tonight!

Last April our dentist showed me Zachary's x-rays and said that a couple of his permanent teeth were coming in and that we should expect him to lose a tooth or two soon. Last month we had the same report from the dentist. Zach had one slightly wiggly tooth. Over the past couple of weeks he has wiggled and wiggled, we have tried the dental floss trick again and again but that little tooth would not give up its hold on Zach's gums. Not until tonight anyway. Right as Tim was putting the kids in bed Zach asked if I was going to do the dental floss again. So, I headed in to give hugs and such and wiggled the tooth to see if it was worth getting him out of bed. It was wiggly all right. It took some doing but just when Zach was about to give up...pop...the tooth flew out of his mouth and hit me in the face (he had his head in my lap for this procedure). Here is the proud owner of a hole in his mouth!
