My almost seven year old looks very different today. Her top two teeth have moved out to make way for her adult teeth. Watching her trying to talk, exaggerating mouth movements and then trying to eat various foods like apples is quite funny.

I know with her adult teeth she will now have to work harder at cleaning and protecting them. I have very few left so I am a good example of what happens when you don't keep them clean. Dental health will never be an issue in this house with me around I can tell you.

Still, for my seven year old, she is as proud as punch and cannot wait for her adult teeth to come through. She just has another dozen or two to go now.
