Joe turned 29 years old this month. He graded papers his entire birthday weekend. Not to worry though, I inturrupted his dutiful grading to present him with a birthday shake complete with candles and a birthday gift. We went out to dinner a day later to celebrate. Joe smiled big for the camera with little Joe in his arm trying to eat his thumb. ---look closely and check out Daddy Joe's new braces!
CUTE BRACES STORY *Joe was at school and 4 students that he had last year shouted out in the hall to him "Mr. Ashby, Mr. Ashby, did you get braces"? To which he responded, "yes". Then all four students smiled at the same time and, you guessed it, all four of his former students also had braces. It just made me laugh when he came home and told me the story.*
