I took Jadyn for her first visit to the dentist yesterday. That was interesting. It seemed kind of "unsuccessful". She sat in my lap in the dental chair, and after much coaxing, she finally let the hygienist look in her mouth briefly. She wouldn't let Dr. Steve get near her. How could he look in her mouth when she was rolled into a tight little ball in my lap? When she wasn't doing that, she was kicking her legs and whining. Good fun. Oh well, I guess it's a start. I was relieved there wasn't crying. She was very pleased with her new toothbrush, floss, stickers and things. We'll try again one of these days and she will also go and observe when any of us go for cleanings. I do know that her teeth are healthy and that's the main thing for now.
We do need some sun around here. It's been so cloudy, cool and a bit rainy for days. We will certainly welcome the sun when it arrives. I have flowers that I need to plant and when it's cloudy I don't feel as motivated to get out there. I'll have to do it today! Could someone out there send me some virtual sun?
Bryan's last day of school is tomorrow. I'm sure he'll be happy about that. Since marching band season is in full swing, he will still be at the school several times per week. I'm looking forward to seeing him march in all of the parades. There are about 11 parades on the schedule for June. It will be busy fun time.
Now that I know what kind of flower I am, maybe I'll feel inspired to get out there and plant my flowers, which are waiting patiently for me in the garage.
"Mischief is your middle name, but your first is friend. You are quite the prankster that loves to make other people laugh." It's kind of funny, because this does describe part of me.

My favorite question was what home you would live in when you retire. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to travel the country in an RV.

Hi Laura,
Regarding the dentist: I found a book in the library (My First Visit to the Dentist) to be very helpful preparing my kids for their first visit. The pictures of the chair and instruments were just like the real thing, so they knew what to expect. When Matthew was little, he called the suction instrument a "Noo-Noo" after that little vacuum-like thing on Teletubbies. :-)

You won't believe this Laura.... I am a Snapdragon too! Who would have guessed we're that much alike!
