Yesterday I took the kids to the dentist we do trade with. He has always been our dentist, and we love his office and entire staff. It is worth the drive from Park City to American Fork for their great services. In this picture the kids are amazed as they watch Austin get a panoramic picture taken of his teeth.
Madeline is getting her teeth cleaned and being educated on having good oral hygiene.
Gorgeous!
No cavities for Lauren. Everyone was very impressed with her pretty teeth.
Then there was Ty. I didn't have an appt. for him, but they fit him in anyway. I didn't think he would cooperate. Um, I was wrong. He climbed right on to the big purple chair, with his eyes closed and his mouth open, ready to be worked on.
comfy Ty?
"oh yes, I am."
Cleaning,
flossing,
fluoride,
and five for Dr. Pitts.
The Pitts' crew were absolutely amazed. I've got 4 kids, 0 cavities. Yes! Ty did have one 2 yr. molar with no enamel on it. We need to go get that fixed. Good thing I took him in!
Nice job getting a video on. My computer won't do it. That is hilarious that Ty just went along with the whole procedure with no problems. I doubt that many kids his age have ever done that in the history of the world:)!
I just have to comment again about the comment you made on my blog about cam being a druggy on the streets....it caught me funny and i'm still laughing. you are quite the comedian:)!
Fun visit to the dentist, your kids all did such a great job. It's funny cause that is the same dentist that Morgan goes to!! Small world. We will be in Park City next week. We are staying at Bear Hollow, we will have to get the boys together to go swimming. I will call you when we get up there. LJ
And the day will come when thePAINof staying thesame will outweigh theFEAR of CHANGING.
If I Had My Child to Raise Over Again
"If I had my child to raise all over again, I'd build self esteem first, and the house later. I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less. I would do less correcting and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off the watch, and watch with my eyes. I'd take more hikes, and fly more kites. I would stop playing serious, and seriously play. I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. I'd do more hugging and less tugging." Dian Lommas
Our Deepest Fear By Marianne Williamson
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness That most frightens us.
We ask ourselves Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small Does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking So that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, As children do. We were born to make manifest The glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; It's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others.

THE PURPOSE OF ADVERSITY
"to live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning in the suffering. If there is a purpose in life at all, there must be a purpose in suffering and dying. But no man can tell another what that purpose is. Each must find out for himself and accept the responsibility that his answer prescribes."

OUR OTHER BULLDOG
This is Z. We are IN LOVE with this little girl.
When I read to my kids, it's a great experience. Especially when I'm teaching them.
"What can . . . young mother[s] [do] . . . to reduce the pressure [of raising young children] and enjoy [their families] more? . . . "Recognize that the joy of motherhood comes in moments. There will be hard times and frustrating times. But amid the challenges, there are shining moments of joy and satisfaction. "Author Anna Quindlen reminds us not to rush past the fleeting moments. She said: 'The biggest mistake I made [as a parent] is the one that most of us make. . . . I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of [my three children] sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages six, four, and one. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less' (Loud and Clear [1004], 10-11)."
