All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth

This is Emma taken just a few days ago.  As you can see, she finally lost both her two front teeth.  And now all she wants for Christmas is those brand new adult front teeth.  The first one came out and the second one was hanging on for a while.  “Mommy, there is a hard thing behind my loose tooth.”  When they looked it was white.  “Honey, it’s your new tooth!”  And she started yanking on it to come out.   Emma got a little help from her brother Elijah to get it out too.  They were playing in her room and bumped heads.  Just the push it needed.  It was long after that she had number two in her hand.

And here are all three standing in front of one of the big trees on our property.  Thanks for praying for them as they grow both physically and spiritually.  They are all busy with school and play.  Ethan, Emma and Elijah all like riding their bikes around the yard.  They also like playing in the mud and then getting cleaned up with a swim down in the ocean or pool.

Finally, Happy American Thanksgiving to everyone.  Ben is on Lagonav doing teaching with a couple men who just arrived today from Pennsylvania and New Hampshire.  Heather and the kids will be down at friends eating turkey with a big group of missionary friends.  Be thankful!
