A field trip morning

This morning Faith went with her class on a field trip. They have all been talking about dental hygiene the last few weeks and community helpers so what better place to visit to finish the month than a trip to the fire station and pediatric dentist. Each time we go to the fire station, Faith will not get into the fire truck. However her teacher went up with her and she enjoyed sitting in the driver's seat. She was learey about the fire man in his fire gear. She wouldn't give him a high five. She was just stand offish. He does look kinda scarey. But she says, "the fireman is our friend." The fire station gave each of the children a firechief sticker badge and their own helmet to take home. The visit to the pediatric dentist did not interest her too much. She said she did not have fun. When I asked her what the dentist does, she informed me that the dentist drills your teeth out. Ok, Faith, but I think he might do some other things also. I can tell that she has listened to the reoccurence of words spoken in our house when we speak of candy or sweets.
