Tickle my teeth!
Can I scream in complete joy. Word is, we broke a weather record today +23 outside. It was BEAUTIFUL. I love the nice weather. Ya, ya I know before long I will be complaining it is too hot. But for now I will bask in the joy of not wearing a sweater, jacket, toque, scarf and mittens. It was wonderful. I think our screen door got a workout. Joseph was in and out of the house so much. Its great though to see the kids enjoy the outdoors. Trent enjoys going for walks and I was really worried since our yard isn't fenced in that he would walk off. I discovered that Trent won't walk on the grass, so the trick is no shoes then he won't leave the cement pad without us. I am sure before long he will figure that out. But thats ok, I am glad they get to be outside.
But, to top our beautiful day off, Joseph and I headed off to the dentist. It was Joseph's first visit there and I tried to gear him up for it as much as I could saying she would count his teeth and tickle them. It went SOOOOOOO great. I went first and had my checkup and then it was Joseph's turn. He hopped up in the chair and listened so well! He got his teeth cleaned and got a floride treatment (his tooth vitamins as he would say) the hygenist commented on his beautifully clean teeth and his brushing skills. The dentist had a look and said he has great teeth and no cavitities! It was great to hear and my pocketbook enjoyed that news as well. We celebrated with a popsicle before supper. *doh* not much supper was consumed after that, but oh well. Daddy & I were proud.
Funny to see your little four year old seem so grown up. He answered all the questions today and seemed to be so in control of his desitiny at the dentist. I mean as in control as you can be. It was big business choosing his paste flavor and his floride flavor, then 2 stickers and such. He didn't even want to hold my hand. *sniff* Before you know it I will have to park 3 blocks away so no one sees him with his Mother. I dread that day, it is coming way too fast. Until then, I will enjoy holding his hand on our way into places. Those parking lots are scary and dangerous places you know.

That's great he did so well at the dentist...hold on to those moments... I cherish everytime my 9 year old still wants a kiss and hug in front of his friends, hoping it lasts until he's at least 30 or 40!
