Pop Tarts

Avery went to the Dentist for the first time about a month ago. She has been very cautious of her teeth since then. I tell her that if she eats a lot of sugar and doesn’t brush her teeth before going to bed and when she wakes up in the morning she will get cavities. I do have a couple of cavities and she will ask to see them and then she proceeds to tell me I don’t brush my teeth very well. =) Doesn’t every adult have at least one cavity? Getting back to my story… Yesterday when I dropped her off at school the options for breakfast were oatmeal, which she likes but it was cold and just didn’t look very good, or pop tarts, as they had run out of milk (another story). There are not many days when we give her the pop tart option, but when she had it yesterday she didn’t want it. That totally surprised me and I asked her why she didn’t want a pop tart and she said because it would break her teeth. =) If everything was this easy life would be great. She needed to eat something for breakfast so I told her we would brush her teeth really well before going to bed. Hopefully when she goes to her next dental appointment she will not have any cavities as she might tell the Dentist it is because mommy made me eat a pop tart, never mind the other sweet stuff she eats every once in a while. Hope everyone has a Happy Friday!!
