And, Why Do Your Teeth Hurt When You Have Braces?

Here is the photo of Graham yesterday before he got his braces on...note that the top front tooth on the right (as you are looking at his mouth) laps slightly over the one on the left. Well, the photo of Graham with his braces on shows his mouth today...guess what...no lapping over any more! I guess he at least sees a reason that his mouth hurts...those teeth are moving! His daddy has kept him so busy today that he hasn't had much time to think about a hurting mouth. They are building a storage building in their backyard. Lots of hammering going on over there. I had school with Elijah, Esther, Joy and Abigail this morning. Abigail took Graham's time as he really wanted to continue helping his daddy rather than coming for Grammy school time! Woody and Elijah made pumpkin pudding after Elijah had his time with me. Woody carried it over to Graham and family for them to have for dessert with their lunch (something else soft for Graham!). I ate a quick bite of lunch and then headed to the church library to work for a couple of hours. We solved several problems and finished with a task as much as we could till we get some supplies sent. I came right home and ordered what we needed to complete that library task...so maybe those supplies will arrive before next week and then we can get that task completed...before too much longer! Woody has done more mulching and also walked four miles this afternoon.
