Those Relentless Jackboots of Time

Actually, my teeth were a little late coming in too.  Sophia is seven and has just lost her first tooth.  Her dad lost his first teeth when he was four, but that was due to a rock discus accident.  He was merely a spectator who was a little shy on judgement of the space/time continuum at the time.  He was an especially cute little tyke, but he lacked teeth for a good many years which put a tiny blight on the esthetics of the situation a bit.  Hope her classmates are duly impressed.  Or it just might be old-hat to them by now.
