Braces

So the big event of the first week of February was the boy child getting his braces on. The good thing about this is that at age 11 he has all his grown up teeth so by the time he goes to High School he will be done.
He gets to choose his band colors each time he goes and I thought for sure he would go green, but he surprised everyone and asked for "Patriot" colors. Uhhh when did he get so into football?? I said the only good thing was that they we also the Sox colors!
It will be a little while before he gets the bottom set on. They were a little funky to get use to but they weren't painful so all is well. The hard part is remembering that he has them and that there are things he can't eat with them.
