Will's front tooth

Will lost his first tooth (two teeth actually) in Kindergarten. The two front teeth on the bottom came out last year and have been replaced by permanent ones. But that's just the beginning, of course. For awhile now, Will has been telling me his top tooth is wiggly. I knew it was just a matter of time, so I got a few last pictures of his smile as is.
The first tooth is obviously the biggest deal, but you don't see your bottom teeth as much when you smile. SO it's the top teeth that really change your smile forever. Once the space between his teeth started spreading, I knew things were about to change as they always do. I got some pics of his "baby" smile that will be gone forever. (Yes, I'm always this dramatic)

And I'm glad I did because it was just a few days later that tooth got really wiggly and then came out! My little man is still such a good lookin' boy, but the lost tooth changes his smile/his look. He has an older look about him now I think. He's growing up! SO Fast!!

I guess we'll see if the permanent tooth comes in before he loses his other front tooth. All drama aside, it's sweet watching him grow up and reach milestones. Even these seemingly little ones (to most people, they're all big to me:)) They just never stop! Especially with multiple kids, things are always changing, moving, growing. It's a good thing. And I'm so grateful to have healthy, growing kids. Just bittersweet moments. Change always leads me to reflect and reminisce a little. But change is good and I do know that. I love you my little man!!! Even with one less tooth :)
