"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Maddy's Teeth



Maddy has lost two more teeth, that means she now has lost 4 teeth. She is so proud of herself and tells everyone she sees. Maddy is only 5 years old I cannot believe she is loosing so many teeth. It has been so fun to be the tooth fairy and see Maddy so happy when she wakes up in the morning after hiding her tooth under her pillow. The things we get to do as parents can be so rewarding. I love being a mom to Maddy, she is such a sweetheart full of so much energy. She helps me out with so much and is always so willing. She has been going through so many changes having so many people living with us and then moving out. She hasn't been able to understand why it is all happening the way it is and she asks so many questions. I wish there was an easier way to explain life to Maddy. I am afraid she will always have a hard question for me that I don't know how to answer. Maybe it is just her age..... I just love her so much.

Nan, didn't you just get Maddy's teeth to come in? Wow time flies.
So you are an empty nester like me? Nate amd Mindy got moved into their new house? I'll bet it is Quiet. Did you get Syd's invite for her bridal shower? I put Mindy on there, so make sure she knows. I miss you in blog land, I hope you can return. I feel like you moved away or something. I love ya kiddo.

Yeah! That is so fun for kids (and us)! I loved your last post Natalie. I know I always say this but you are such a strong example to me. I'm sad we don't get to visit teach you anymore. Hopefully you won't get bugged if I call ya' every once in a while since we hardly ever see each other :)

Makes me sad that the "tooth fairy" delivered it's last gift for the last time in this house. : (

I made SURE the toothfairy left the tooth for me to put in a special box next to the FIRST tooth that left for the toothfairy.

FUn times, eh?!
