Hello Gorgeous!

Monday was Columbus Day and our school district had the day off. Delight! Instead of sleeping in that morning, Hannah and I had an important date. Monday was the day we have been waiting for....time for braces!

Here is my gorgeous Hannah in the waiting room full of excitement and anticipation:

It wasn't long before they called her back. I already had her permission to go with her and to take a few photos to document this special day. We feel very blessed to be under the careful care of this wonderful orthodontist.

In less than forty-five minutes, Hannah's top braces with carefully chosen red and grey bands were in place.

She asked me if she looked funny to which I replied, "You are gorgeous! Just like always!" She smiled from ear to ear.

and brushed her teeth about four times that day.  Delight!

I think she totally looks like a teenager now!  And way better in braces than her momma ever dreamed.
