When you are the youngest in a "large" family. (I use the term large, rather loosely...because it is all comparative) There is precious little that hasn't been tried, experienced or exhausted by everyone else. And yet, when it happens to you...it is important...it is no less monumental than when it happened to the first child.
But to everyone, it marks a milestone. In our family it happens later than most, but yet it is no less important..and therefore I announce.....
Isaac lost his first tooth!
Yep....and the joy is evident on his face! As I hug him and congratulate him on his major accomplishment...(the first step into manhood...you know)...my stomach does a little flip-flop as my heart realizes that time is not waiting on me...it is marching on.
As I realize that this time next year...after 16 years of continuous use...there will be no required carseats in my car...

That last picture...man, I just want to squeeze that adorable face.
It's good for me to know that your kiddos lose their teeth late...Charis appears to be doing that too. She's wondering why "everyone else" is toothless and she doesn't even have any amount of wiggle. :)
