Braces!


Well, Willow got her braces yesterday, and she seems to love them so far. We will see how long that lasts as the novelty wears off. Keeping them clean is a really serious project. Up top she has braces on her front four, and below she has a soft splint to help with her under bite. She had great fun show and telling them in class today. One good thing about being six, the kids all think braces are cool, not horrid. I have to reconfigure her lunch plans since she can no longer eat some foods, but all in all, it is not as disruptive as I had thought it might be.

Wow, she looks like such a big girl. I always thought braces were cool as a kid. Hopefully the coolness will last until they come off.
