Our Precious Boy - Landon!!

It is with great joy that I give a report on our sweet, strong son, Landon!! For those who did not hear, Landon was struck in the mouth with a baseball. He lost his two front permanant teeth. Although his excellent dentist, Dr. Leblanc, tried to save both teeth, he had a facial fracture under his gums that prevented one of his teeth from going back in correctly. His mouth is healing and his spirits are great! He will wear a retainer for a few years and then eventually get some fine teeth implanted into his gums!!!

I would like to thank my mom for stepping in as my angel immediately when the accident occurred. A big thank you to Shawndel and Dr. Leblanc for the urgent response, Landon was in the dentist chair 2o minutes after the accident. Thanks to my mother-in-law Janice for her strength and courage. Thanks to Rochelle, Ros and Pack (you are the best), Sissy and Brent Dicharry for coming to hospital to check on Landon. Thanks to so many others who sent cards, ice cream, came to visit, etc. specifically Coach Link and Coach Lynn, Heather and Byron, Nanny Wanda, Katie, Maw-Maw, Myrna, Kari Smith, Randy and Susan Marcello, Tina O'bryant, Lisa and Eno, Sarah, and Pecan Grove Primary Team. Your kindness will forever be carved into our hearts.
Phil 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me" We have held onto this scripture and HE has strenghtened us. When it comes down to it teeth can be replaced but our little Landon cannot. He has brought tremendous joy to our lives in the last 8 years and we give God all the glory for that!!! Thank you Father!!

Brian and Emily
