be true....

a saying that I frequently remind myself of:

be true to your teeth, or they will be false to you.

a very wise saying, and VERY true. No one knows better than me (or exaggeration), how important good hygine is from an early age - hence I am sure Matteo brushes his teeth 2x a day and limit his sweet intake, etc. Our two downfalls: raisins and scobby snacks (the later is courtesy of Grandma! - - then again Scobby snacks typically come with Green Philmore, which tickles him....well, green).

So today, 2 years 7 months and some odd days, after birthing matteo and cracking a tooth a day later, Mommy had that tooth removed. Oddly enough for all this time I just figured it would heal itself :-)

Thanks to Sarah and Daddy who encouraged me to have it out before it got worse, however they failed to see my upset during all of this "should i have it out or keep it" .......the tooth fairy clearly has an age limit and I have more than exceeded it. Darn.

So remember next time you are too tired to brush at night:

Be true to your teeth or they will be false to you.

PS on a lighter note (FOR ME!) Daddy had to take Matteo to Mommy and Me!!! How this man does not come home with tears in his eyes is beyond me!!!!!! Personally I vote for him to do it every week.
