The toothless duo


 If you've met my Ben,   or even seen pictures of him smiling,   you may have noticed he has no front teeth.     If you've ever wondered why,  or have not heard the story,  a quick recap-  when Ben was in 1st grade and ran in a pole on the playground at school.   He ran into it with such force that he jammed his front teeth into the roof of his mouth causing a crazy amount of damage.    It was months of Dentists appointments and studies, and in the end he lost all his adult front teeth.  

 And he's been the toothless boy ever since.  8 years have come and gone, and  He's come to own it,  and just accept it as who he is.

   Well recently one of Ben's wrestling coaches had a similar accident and lost all his front teeth!    He said on of the first things he said was "I look like Ben now!" 

  They laughed about the similar smiles and rocked a picture!     

1st day of second grade!

 She's excited, nervous , and feeling all the emotions,  but is braving it like a champ!       And daddy got to take a picture with her!...
