When Michelle first came home, she would not let me even brush her teeth. It was weeks, if not months, before I could get in there and really clean those pearly whites the way I wanted to. I can't say that I blamed her - she had a lot going on with that sweet little mouth.
Today, she jumped up in the chair. I have to say, Dr. Wooddell is awesome. She gives her a ride in the chair, she gets to wear sunglasses so the lights don't hurt her eyes, and she gets to "tickle" all her fingers before she has to "tickle" all her teeth. Good job Michelle. I love seeing those pretty teeth smiling back at me.
It seems like just yesterday my daughter Elizabeth was just like Michelle. Here is Michelle playing with one of her best buddies, Luke. She is happy it's summer and she can enjoy lots of outdoor time. 
Elizabeth has grown up so fast. I am excited to see the beautiful young woman she has become, and I know she is more than ready to move on to the next phase of life. To say she is excited about college is an understatement! But I'm not so sure I'm ready. I'm gonna miss her so much!
Here are a couple of pictures of her singing with her friends at her school's baccaluareate service last week. Tonight she graduates from high school. I've enjoyed every moment of her growing up. I love my sweet girls. (and my boys too!)
