Dr. Clara, DDS

Inspired by a trip to the dentist today, Clara felt compelled to open a dental office in our living room. Her first patient was given a cleaning (note the hygienic Ziploc gloves), x-rays (she made me step out of the room to avoid exposure), and two fillings. She also extracted two pieces of coconut shell from his molars (no idea how she came up with that one- I'm fairly sure that the dentist didn't find anything of the sort in her teeth today).
At the end of his appointment, Trevi (and all subsequent patients) got to choose a toy from the prize bin. The best part, though, and so very, very Claraesque, was the "goody bag". Prior to inviting anyone into her chair, Clara had collected our respective toothbrushes, pastes, and flosses, and stashed them in bags for each of us. She had then taken a sharpie to each bag and added illustrations of happy teeth. Our girl is nothing if not thorough. As each patient left the office, she handed us our oral hygiene kit, and reminded us to, "Brush and floss for a healthy smile!"
