Tomorrow you will be 18!
Tonight Daddy and I took you out to your favorite restaurant, Red Robin. All you really wanted was the bottomless fries!
Later we played at the mall.
But mostly I’m blown away that 18 years have passed!! We love you, Joy! Happy birthday!!

Wisdom Teeth
Poor Joy had impacted wisdom teeth. We have been working on getting them out since December! It finally happened on Wed, June 12th.
She was so excited to go! She wasn't so excited afterwards - poor love. Surprisingly, though, she wasn't in that much pain. She only had one episode of crying. Mainly she just looked like a chipmunk.
Here we are on Monday and she's back to her summer camp and eating like a champ!
