Clean Teeth!

I am frustrated again that my little one doesn't like to have his teeth brushed. We spent about 5 minutes tonight brushing his teeth and it felt like I was torturing him. That 5 minutes felt more like 30. I don't understand! When Gracie was little, I would just say "Clean Teeth Equals Healthy Teeth" and she would just open her mouth. This one on the other hand screams, bites the tooth brush, holds his lips closed, pushes his tongue out, etc. The dentist keeps saying he'll get over it. I just want to know when.

Anyway, I wanted to document the first time Cameron became possessive of his mother. I walked into his classroom today and he was playing "kitchen". He was busy feeding the other kids I began to talk to Ms. April. I have a tendency to pick up other kids and hug them and comfort them as I know they wish their mommies were picking them up. Today, this little boy Jak (yes, they spell it with no "c") came up to me and said hi. He just kind of hung around me and listened to my conversation with Ms. April. Jak reached up and started holding my hand. Cameron catches a glimpse of this and starts heading towards me. He pushed Jak very hard and said "my mommy"! Although I had to speak to him sternly about pushing I was very proud! He sure is growing up quickly.

During his Valentines Party, Ms. April asked Cameron the following question. "Cameron, what does a heart mean"? Cameron looked up to her and signed "love" and said "luf". It was priceless!

Cameron got a horse from Grandma & Grandpa this year for Christmas. At first, he was very apprehensive about getting on it. That DID not last long. He runs over to his horse, puts on his cowboy hat and rides his little heart out. He yells, yee-haw to the best of his ability! Cracks me up - thanks Grandma & Grandpa. Hopefully one day, I will learn how to upload video.
