More Firsts (Amira)

Today Amira lost her First Tooth. This is really, really special to her and very emotional for me. Biruk started losing his teeth last February shortly after they came home. Amira had her oral surgery to jank out all her front top teeth last May and get numerous crowns. But no signs of baby teeth falling out. She had to sit there toothless and was teased numerous times in school why she didn't have any teeth. Emotional for me because my baby had to suffer and was teased. Well she doesn't have to suffer anymore. Now it will be only a matter of time until her top teeth come in too.
