Worst Parent Award Winner

Yes, that me. Well, according to the dentist I just took Lauren and Brandon to. She didn't say it, but I got the look. Lauren has cavities and needs a root canal on the tooth that fell apart. I had seen it and that's why we were there. Brandon has a cavity. They wanted X-Rays of Brandon. OK, think about this. Brandon, X-rays. Not happening. They sort of got the one you just stand for. But it was a little fuzzy. The dentist wanted more. We tried, but he didn't want that thing in his mouth. I was pretty impressed that they were able to clean his teeth with only a little help and hand holding. Lauren is the bigger problem. The assistant really gave me the look. She told me if I had to hold her down to properly brush her teeth, I should. That sounds pleasant. Lauren is also missing a permanent tooth. The baby tooth hasn't fallen out yet but when it does, there is nothing to take it's place. So we go back for more torture on December 1st. All in all they said they weren't' scared and it didn't hurt. Thank God there is no fear about going back. Well, on their part anyway.
