Not much news this week… Becky had her palatal expander removed, finally! For the past year, the metal device has helped to widen her top jaw. Now the bones are in the right place, she’ll get braces on the top front teeth to begin to pull them forward. After that, we’ll see where she is… she’s missing some permanent teeth, so we’ll address that issue as she grows.
Tonight we walked down the street to the Smithsburg carnival, where the girls ran around with their friends, and Becky won a goldfish. Around 10 PM, there were fireworks. Life in a small town… it’s nice to walk down a friend’s house, have others gather there, and just hang out together, letting the kids run around like wild ones, making s’mores, and winning fish.
