WII: I became a parent 32 years ago and for me - it will not end. Ryan will always be dependent on me. I TOTALLY get it.

I had all my wisdom teeth out last November along with 3 molars that had cracked as the wisdom teeth had grown sideways for too long. Charming! I have also taken my 2 younger kids in to have theirs removed as well. It is best to do it once and do it right and within a day or 2 she will be right as rain. Tell her to take the pain killers as directed and keep that swelling down. Frozen peas are wonderful as they conform to the face and be sure to ice this way the first day to keep the bruising to a minimum.

I ate lots of pudding and drank milkshakes (no straw - that is bad). Josh came down 2 days later and made me Shepherd's Pie and I can still taste how good it was when I was SO hungry!

Anyway - being busy is good. Your daughters will be grown and gone before you know it.

We are going to my baby girl's apt to stay overnight this w/e. We are celebrating her birthday. She is texting me about food, bedding etc. Sounds like she has it all together. I think it is so cool! And yes - I really do miss her!
