Kiddos
Photo from brightnewsmile.com
As most of you reading probably know, I am in dental school and I am loving the dentistry part of dental school. I am also pretty firmly set on finishing after next year and to forgo doing a residency of any kind because I am ready to work and not be in school, plus so far I really like all the aspects of general dentistry. This last week I rotated through the pediatric clinic and really enjoyed it, but I am still not swayed into pursuing a pedo residency. I am maybe just more convinced that I would possibly like to treat kids one day, maybe through a public health job, or maybe a family practice setting in a smaller community where there are not tons of pediatric dentists.
So... here is a list of pros and cons of treating kids that sums up my experiences from last week.
Pros
1. Kids are really cute, and they say funny things.
2. You get to have stickers and prizes in your office.
3. You get to act goofy. (and dress up for things like Halloween)
4. Kids are still forming habits, so you could potentially set them up to have great oral health their whole life.
Pros or Cons
1. You pretty much just drill and fill, kids don't usually need a whole lot of crowns/bridges or dentures! (This is good or bad depending on what kind of dentistry you like, I have not done enough of everything yet to know for sure.)
Cons
1. You have to deal with some really intense parents.
2. Kids can scream really loud!

Prayers of an Excellent Wife
Here is one of the prayers from the book.
Father of Wisdom,
Let me never cease to pray for my husband, asking
that he may be filled with the knowledge of Your
will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk
in a manner worthy of You, bearing fruit in every good work
and increasing in the knowledge of You. May he be strengthened
with all power, according to Your glorious might, for all
endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to You, who
have qualified him to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.
Do you remember, my beloved, that He has delivered you
from the domain of darkness and transferred you to the
kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom you have redemption,
the forgiveness of sin? Yes, praise Him with me for His
marvelous grace!
O LORD God, make him continue in the faith, stable and
steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that he
heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under
heaven. Keep him! Keep him! Keep him in the love of Christ.
Amen (Colossians 1).

Rescued from a Chilean Mine
Photo from boston.com/bigpicture
The 33 trapped Chilean miners were pulled out from under 1/2 mile of rock last week and an estimated 1 billion people watched on. With all the media coverage these are my condensed choices for recapping the event.
First, the event in pictures. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/10/rescued_from_a_chilean_mine.html
Second, an article on why the miners had T-shirts that said "Gracias Padre". http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2010/10/14/the-story-behind-the-chilean-miners-jesus-t-shirts/
Lastly, an article talking about the miners that accepted Christ while trapped under ground. http://www.sbcbaptistpress.org/BPnews.asp?ID=33842

The God We Praise
The Brook Hills praise team has just released a CD of original music. We have been singing a lot of these songs in worship for weeks now, and I think you will enjoy them as much as we have! Check out the website and click on each track to see the lyrics, hear a sample, and read the bio about how the song was inspired from scripture.
