February: the Tooth month.

February was the month of losing teeth. Lanaya's molar lost her 10th and 11th tooth last month, her 11th being her first molar. That was quite the event. We had Pastor Bill and his wife Debbie over for dinner that night and Naya was determined to have it out before the night was over. Sure'nough, as they were pulling out of the drive way the tooth came out and she went running outside to let them know.

As for Angelo, he's had this 2 front teeth loose for over a couple of months. They finally came out a couple of weeks ago. The first one, I had the privelege of pulling out. It had been literally hanging by a thread for like 7 days, but Angelo wanted to wait for the right time... whatever that was!?! He asked me if I'd like to pull it out and I said, "Sure!". So I grabbed a piece of tissue and tried pulling out. After 3 or 4 tries, Angelo asked me to use my whole body and pull. So, I did and it came right out. He was soooo stoked. He thanked me and later on that night, when it was time to pray, Angelo thanked the Lord for giving him a Daddy who could pull out his tooth so that it wouldn't hurt. I felt like a hero that day. The second tooth came out day's later. Angelo pulled that one out himself.
