Dakota lost his 1st tooth last week and he was so excited. He is 7 years and 2 months old. My little boy is growing up so fast. He has been doing really well in school and loves to come home and show me all that he has worked on. He loves to do homework and really understands math well and has come so far in the last year. He is learning to read and although he doesn't really like to read outloud if I ask him to, he likes to read if it's his idea. He is still a "Mama's Boy" and I can always count on a big hug from him. He likes to hold my hand when we're out and about. I wonder how much longer it will last. I know at some point he will be too big to sit on my lap and will probably stop giving me hugs in public, but I enjoy it while it lasts. Bruce and I were talking the other day about how big they are all getting and how he thinks I'll cry like a baby when he grows up and leaves home. I'm sure that he's right because it makes me sad to think about it. But, I have atleast another 10 years to enjoy before that happens. I just hope and pray that I can help to teach him what he needs to be strong and valient in the world that we live.
It's hard to smile and show off the bottom teeth, but I think you can see that there's a tooth missing. The one next to it is getting a little loose too, so it won't be long.
