Isaiah 58: 11

The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs
in a sun-scorched land
and will strengthen your bones.
You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose
waters never fail.

The long-awaited moment arrived this evening.






Charlotte lost her first tooth.






She was thrilled to see the tooth sitting on her tongue after tearfully deciding she would NOT pull it out tonight.





Charlotte's thoughts on the event:

"I was about to swallow my medicine, and for heaven's sake I'm glad I didn't, because my tooth was suddenly on my tongue!"

"My first step to adulthood." oh my

Did the Tooth Fairy come and visit you? I wonder what she may have given you?

Hooray! We love your toothless grin:) Ethan's favorite thing to do when he loses a tooth is whistle through the new hole. Have you tried that? Hours of fun! We love you!

Charlotte,
I bet your tongue is busy all day sliding in and out of that slot!

Margie, "And for heaven's sake I'm glad I didn't" is the BEST PART.

Much, much love to you all,
