Prayers and Missing Teeth

About three weeks ago I looked at Anna at church and noticed that her two front permanent bottom teeth were right behind her front baby teeth. Her baby teeth were not loose at all. Not for lack of wiggling. We have been trying to lose teeth for a while now, but to no avail. So when I saw that the permanent teeth were moving in whether the baby ones were ready to leave or not I called the dentist. Yesterday we headed to the dentist. I didn't know if they would pull them or wait until another time. Once they looked at them they decided to pull them. Poor little girl. They didn't tell her. All they said was that it was going to hurt a bit. Poor baby. I could hear her cries from the waiting room. I texted a few people and asked them to pray right then! It's great to know that I have friends that will pray right when I ask. Even more great to know that God hears those prayers. I calmed down, and so did she. The next time I saw her she looked like this. Still just as pretty wit...

Another tooth lost!

After Bible School last night, Daniel pulled his tooth out. His first tooth! We were so excited. It was the tiniest baby tooth I've ever seen. On his way to the truck, the tooth fell out of the kleenex it was in. And it is lost, LOST! We looked for that tooth in the dark on the black asphalt parking lot and could NOT find it. But Samuel to the rescue- he assured Daniel that the tooth fairy would still come. And that made everything better. Until this morning when Daniel came and woke me up and said "The tooth fairy didn't leave me anything, not even a penny." Oh, that tooth fairy! Well, it turns out that when I went in his room with my hand in a tightly held fist(full of something!), Daniel found the money the tooth fairy had left him. It had fallen out from underneath his pillow! Can you believe it? You better, because it happens just about ALL the time the tooth fairy comes (or just forgets and goes to bed without thinking another thing about it!) Congrats Daniel! T...
