Steph,

I agree, what encouragement..(haha) So now I get to look forward to

a tipped, flared up nose....YIKES!! I am going to ask my OS on

Tuesday about that!! I am going to tell him that I didn't order a

tipped nose! The price we have to pay for a perfect bite...(haha)

Best of Luck again on June 14th if I don't talk to you before then.

Please let me know as soon as you feel up to it about that tipped

nose! Maybe I better take a bunch of pictures of me now with my cute

little nose while I still have it!!
