Rite of passage?

This was an effective way to remember. 

The circles mark the spots where the third molars are.

The operating room

The upper molars came out in three pieces so we were allowed to keep them,
but the lower ones came out in many, many pieces.

And now it is pudding, yogurt, and soft foods. Except for a donut after playing a soccer game this morning, during which he blocked two penalty kicks. I guess recovery is going ok!
