Big Sister No Tooth

Lorin has been an amazing big sister to Izzy through her hard cancer days. Sometimes if Izzy is not feeling well she asks for "To-to" (her own nickname for Lorin--a spinoff of "LoLo"). Ryan also gets so pumped when Lorin comes bouncing off the bus and wants Lorin to chase her and make her laugh. For me, she has been a huge help not only with the younger sisters, but I can tell she has found cleaning up and helping when I ask kind of fulfilling--she knows she is the only other one (when Dad is gone) that can get the job done quickly and completely. For me, at this time in my life, Lorin's help means the difference between an ok day and a great day!



I just got done helping Lorin yank a tooth while simultaneously taking video of it.






We went to the Detroit Auto Show. Lorin and Dad were very IN to this car.

The slow motion on that video is priceless! Nothing like the good ol' sneak attack when it comes to tooth yanking:)

I don't know about the sneek attack on the first tooth...noe she's onto your tricks:) WAY TO GO LOLO (AND KERRI)! From my days in the classroom, I have already decided that will have to be a "daddy-duty" in our house! We sure love you guys!

I love it! Her facial expression during the slow motion is priceless! :) Thank you so much for sharing. Way to go, Lorin!

Poor, Lorin! I'm glad that it came out, though. Kerri, you ARE a good Mom--even if she never trusts you again.

I loved it! I also loved that all Cory could do was laugh while Lorin was crying. I hope she got big $ for that tooth
