Brace Yourself

This morning Shilo had an appointment with the guy who sets things straight.

She came home braced for the long haul.
Estimated duration of confinement:  18 months. 

Although none of my previous three children have fit neatly into the pre-determined ETC
(Estimated Time of Completion).

Shilo is determined NOT to talk funny or do crazy things with her lips.

And she has already used the tiny toothbrush given her by the ortho to keep those braces clean.  I don't think my other kids EVER used that.  But Shilo's different.  Meticulous.  Careful.  Observant of the orthodontic rules of good hygiene.

We will anxiously await the results, however long it takes.
