The Tooth is Out There


Yesterday was the last day I will ever see my six year old with all her baby teeth. Good lawd, I can remember the day I say her first tooth push through said the same thing to myself about her gummy little smile.
Elliot lost her first tooth this week. Her daddy pulled it for her. I am not the tooth person in our house.
Congrats Elliot! You were way braver than I ever was at getting your tooth pulled.
I love you!

We've All Got Problems, What the Hell Is Yours?

Seriously, who has the perfect life? Or should I say the life that perfectly suits them?
We all have issues.
I was walking the isles of Target the other day and I hear the woman on her cell phone talking about her teenage daughter being pregnant. yes, I was eavesdropping :)
She was an attractive woman, in her 40's I would guess. Dressed rather nice. Yet, she was going on and on about her kid being knocked up. My first smug thought was, well, at least it isn't me, but then again my oldest is only six...it could be me someday.
So then I was thinking to myself, we have issues. My big glaring one is cancer, but if you are not one of my fans, I am sure you could come up with many others for me.
Folks have issues with:
kids
mates
inlaws
outlaws
drug
drink
health
religion
whatever...
My point is, no one has the perfect life I guess. Money can't buy it either.
This is just something I have been thinking about lately.

Peace Out
