Things have been a little weird lately. Stuff I can not blog about is happening and I hadn't realized how much of a release writing had become till I had to self filter, so to speak. I hope things will be okay, but in the mean time I thought I would share a funny story.
Back when KC was barely two, he had an abcessed tooth. Because he was so young, it took a while for this to be discovered. It didn't show in a regular x-ray at first and nothing seemed amiss during a visual dental exam.. It wasn't really clear if he was just getting other teeth gradually. The pain would come and go but never bothered him really dramatically till the abcess became full blown. At that time the dentist decided extraction would be best. KC who was very sick of going to the dentist so often was deternined that this was.not.going.to.happen. We wound up having to take him to a special dental surgeon who could anesthesize him for the procedure. In the way of parents everywhere, we bribed the boy. Let us do this and we will get you a treat. Well, it wasn't exactly like that but close. What he wanted was a beta fish. And so, Hush the beta came to live with us.
And lives with us still. KC is 6 1/2 and the fish still swims, albeit a bit sluggishly. I check him every once in a while marvelling at the longevity of his life!
