So, guess what happened at my house this week??? One of my kids got a permanent spacer thingy cemented into her mouth, after having a bunch of baby teeth yanked out a few weeks ago. The spacer is meant to preserve the spaces so that her grown-up teeth can grow right in. She was a little trouper through the whole thing, until we realized that she can no longer have gum, Laffy Taffy, caramel, gummy worms, Starbursts, Skittles, Mike & Ike's, or …
We're the family they warned you about.
