The Dentist

A couple of weeks ago my sister took her 5 kids to the dentist. For the three older ones this is no big deal. But the 2 younger kids are amusing. Here's Isaiah. He's tough. In fact, he's so tough that, "I don't need no numbin' stuff." It was a cleaning so that wasn't going to happen anyway, but it's good to know.

And then there's the princess, Ariana. She's like a lot of people with a HUGE fear of the dentist. Major dental work when she was younger made her that way. In fact, for anything more than a cleaning she has to be put to sleep! This was a cleaning, but still the anxiety was there. Her hygienist was GREAT. She told Little Miss Thing that the reason she gets so stressed out is because the lights are so bright in the dentist's office. Then she gave her these cool sunglasses to help with the glare. It worked too!!! That's one smart lady!
