Braces for Big Girl!

I can remember staring at Emma's gummy smile and wondering when her first tooth would sprout. I can recall the first tooth popping up. It was so cute. Quickly one tooth followed another, and soon, her mouth was full of them.

And it wasn't long before those teeth started to fall out, and adult teeth grew in their place. Teeth for life.

Today, some of those teeth were transformed when braces were put on them. Seriously? When did this little girl become old enough for braces? When? I never got the memo...

Pre- and post-braces

Now the fun begins!
