Brace Yourself
by Rob

Nate got braces on his top teeth today. He chose to have orange and purple fasteners. He came home from the appointment armed with information about eating "dos and don'ts," and a small kit of cleaning supplies.

A few things have changed since I had my braces. He's allowed to have soda occasionally, as long as he brushes right away, and popcorn is no longer on the forbidden list; although, it does come with a warning about trying to eat the hard kernels.

Tonight we'll have mac and cheese for dinner (Mimi-style). Tomorrow, probably eggs or soup or yogurt.
