All I want for Christmas

Tucker's teeth have grown in the craziest pattern. First, the bottom two came in when he was four months old. Then, the top two canine teeth.Then, one of his front teeth came in, but the other didn't quite break the surface. It is the silliest smile I have ever seen!

And, speaking of Christmas wishes... (you know, "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth")
The other day I was in line at the grocery store behind an elderly couple. They bought a turkey, an onion and a couple of oranges. After they checked out, they stood at the end of the counter, looking at the receipt. I'm not sure if it was more than they expected or not, but they seemed to be double checking each purchase. Later, I saw the little old lady walking VERY slowly in the parking lot, trying to stay away from the snow and slick places. I came home and told Tyler I had two wishes. I DO NOT want to have to worry about make a $20 purchase for Christmas dinner and I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT want to live somewhere where I have to worry about slipping and falling in the ice in my old age (I do enough of that in my young age!).

... aren't some older couples just way worried about money even if they don't have to be anymore. I dunno

Yeah, Rachel. Tyler said the same thing or he thought maybe they "enjoyed" going over the receipt to make sure it was right.
