One became two became three!

When I arrived at the office today, I saw this little girl playing with the fountain in our reception area and mummy watching protectively over her 17 month old. They are Daniel's wife and daughter.

I first met Daniel when I was an orthodontic registrar at the National Dental Centre. When I left to set up Omni Dental Centre, Daniel followed me out. That was in 1997 and Daniel was just a 19 years old recruit in the SAF.

Daniel has stayed with us all these years, coming regularly for his dental check ups. Along the way, he introduced his then girlfriend (now wife) to see us. When his baby daughter started having teeth, he brought her to see us. And that made three.

Shortly after coming in to the office today, I met Daniel along the corridor. He had just finished his treatment and he introduced his daughter to me. He said, "Next time, when she grows up, she's going to see you to have her teeth straightened!"
