One Day at a Time

first of all, i must say that it breaks my heart to see a person that has less than zero confidence.  olivia's confidence is off the charts in the negative zone.  that having been said, we have had a wonderful day.

i am taking this week off from work to get olivia to various appointments.  today started with a visit to the dentist to have her teeth cleaned and any needed dental work completed.  she had 10 cavities that we are referring to as her dr. pepper cavities.  the cavities were around the gum line of her anterior teeth. others probably had not noticed since she rarely smiles.   ole said that they were a definite result of all the soda.

she was a trooper but in alot of discomfort and even pain for the rest of the day.  she said that she has learned her lesson and would not be drinking anymore dr. peppers! it was a good reminder to her that the body doesn't want to be abused - there will be consequences.

her next appointment was to the eye doctor.  she is far sighted and needs reading glasses. she is already amazed at the difference they are making. 

last but not least,  she went to yoga with me.  i was so proud fo her!

we ended the day by both telling each other that it had been a good day...
