Day of the Dentist

Margaret and I have been talking for weeks about the trip to the dentist that happened this morning. For her first dentist appointment she did GREAT! She let the hygenist clean and floss her teeth and let the dentist check her without fussing at all. I was SOOOO proud. Today I took the camera anticipating the same excellent behavior and I really was going to make a big deal about it. Needless to say, todays visit was NOT photo worthy--unless we could have gotten a shot of me holding Marg down with my arms and legs and the hygenist prying her mouth open to clean her teeth! YIKES! She was ok at first, but then she decided she was done and she REALLY was. We went to lunch with Jonathan and Tracey after the dental visit and she told them a little about her behavior. She told me she would really try to be a good girl at the next visit. Hopefully she is not going to follow in my footsteps with a dental phobia.
