Okay, so maybe we have two little female finches. Ebb and Flow keep trying to add to the family, and Gail’s egg collection is growing. It’s a regular job to tip up their nest and dump the eggs out.

All but Emma stayed with Aunt Rachel today, while Emma and Mom went for a consultation visit with Dr. Rice, who will be pulling out one of her pre-molars. Something happened to it between x-rays in October and now – which is hard to appreciate, as we have been flossing, brushing and water pik-ing faithfully. No more tooth pulling for this family – Cian and Rilla have perfectly sound teeth, as do Caleb, Emma, and Colin.
