Dazed and Confused

Im knee deep in my high school flashback this week. Ever since i volunteered for coordinating our 20th reunion ive been getting emails from old classmates...even spoken with a couple on the phone and its weird. Seeing their names, seeing pictures of their children, hearing their voices.

It takes you back people.....waaaaay back. And it makes you realize how oblivious you were in your formative years. Most of these people.....really all of these people, are unknown to me. I have collective memories with them, but nothing else. Its a thin connection to your childhood, most of which i cant even remember. Seems kind of sad when you think about it too much. Perhaps looking back makes you appreciate being in the present a little more. It also makes you realize that once a moment has passed IT IS GONE. You cant get it back....not even a photo can capture it.

That being said, those years in West TN im sure were influential in making me into who i am today. And also responsible for alot of much needed therapy......HA!

I figure it will be a hoot though. Reliving or remembering over a cocktail or two.

Brush your teeth, everyday, round and round, prevents tooth decay

..thats our little toothbrushing ditty we sing at night. Followed by a round of "GET OUT OF OUR MOUTHS CAVITIES....we dont want you !!"

We are trying desperately to teach the wolverine good dental hygiene. But as most of you know, brushing a toddlers teeth is like herding wild cats....slow, frustrating, and sometimes painful.

We have had some success lately by letting him hold the shampoo bottle while we brush his teeth. For some reason he is more willing to open up and let us brush if he gets to play with something he usually cant touch. go figure!!!

Anyway....how do you guys do it?? Any foolproof methods. And dont even get me started on flossing!!!!!! ha!

Luckily we dont give the wolverine sugar so that helps. If you dont know....let me be the one to tell you...SUGAR is the cause of cavities. Thats right people....knock out sugar out of your diet and youve fought like 95% of the battle.
