Dentist

This week E.N. and D.M. went to the dentist to have their teeth cleaned and to get some sealants put on.  D.M. went on Tuesday and he had a great time.  He got a green tooth brush and more important he got some floss that is all his.  Very exciting moment.

E.N. went on Thursday.  She was very nervous at first because brother told her all about the pokies (that cleaned the teeth).  And about the "whip cream" (fluoride) that you can not swallow.

Poor E.N. she has her Ma's mouth, small!  She did great when having her teeth cleaned, but when it came time to get the sealants.  She couldn't keep her mouth opened and the assistant struggled to move quickly, and she just had a really hard time working in such a small space.  There was one point that E.N. had just had enough!  She kept her head the right way but she crossed her arms, pulled her knees up and turned her body away from the assistant, and said as best she could, "hhmm!"  I really felt for her.  It just looked like something I would do at a doctors office.  (as a little girl I remember kicking a doctor.)-Ma
