Progress that is slow, and progress that is sudden

I spent 5 hours assisting Marci Sunshine’s husband, John, on Orion’s loft bed.   He let me drill a few holes and screw a few nails eventually.  We got the bed frame part completed.  It features 45 degree angle cuts on the corners and a notched edge along the sides to hold the plywood pieces.

I asked if we would finish it on the next time I came over.

John said, “Oh, no.  Not the next time.  We’ve got a lot more to do.  We may have it done by Christmas.”

The plans say it could be done in 10 hours.  We’ve already put in twice that much.

Meanwhile, Orion is growing up.  He just lost his first tooth today.  We were on our way to a play date.  He was saying, “I’m going to show Logan my wiggly tooth… I think my tooth just came out!”

Here it is.

And here’s the Dragon pouch Honey the Clown gave us to hold it in for the tooth fairy.  I think the tooth fairy brings gold coins.
