Teeth, cookie monsters and WORD VERIFICATION WEDNESDAY!!!

GOOD NEWS!!!

Our insurance company and Oral surgeon's office have communicated sufficiently to allow CJ to have his surgery on Friday!

Yipee!

The only problem is that the insurance still says that they won't pay for the anesthesia.

We told CJ that if he gets all of his homework done this week, we will pay for him to have anesthesia during the surgery.

Change of subject.

Yesterday, Max walked into the room sobbing. Tears were running down his cheeks, and he was clutching a box of girl scout cookies.
"What's wrong?" I ask.
He turned the box upside down to show me that it was empty, and then sobbed "I was COOKIE HUNGRY, and they ATE ALL THE COOKIES!!!"

Poor Max.

(I have to admit that I was feeling a bit bad about it myself)

I had one box of cookies left, so I went to my super secret hiding place and got the Thin Mints.
The other kids (who seem to have some sort of sixth sense when it comes to knowing when a box of cookies is open) came into the room. I told Max that we needed to share.

So Max, my little cookie monster, held the box of cookies and tried to keep the kids from eating any until I told him that he wouldn't get any cookies unless he sharedvery graciously handed out the cookies to his siblings, one at a time, while eating as many as he could in between.
He looked really cute with all the chocolate smeared all over his face.

Another change of subject.

Today is Wednesday, and time again to come up with some definitions for those pesky word verification codes.

If you're new here, here's how to play.
Go to the comment box, read the word verification code and leave a comment giving me your definition for the word.

Play as often as you wish. The more the better!

If you don't like the word you got, refresh the page until you get one that you like.
Check back often to read what others have come up with.

Have fun!

You are SUCH a good mom to consider letting him be anesthetized. When you have to PAY for it.

(I don't do the WV thing because I am WAY too insecure, but mine is: WEASERP if anyone wants it).

Good Luck, CJ (and mom)!

I love Max.

I think maybe you should make him work off the cost of the anesthesia. You really don't want to enable him.

tiburon said...

Way to give CJ something to work towards.

I like that anesthesia is optional.

Well done

I liked Kristina P's idea.
Have him do the work BEFORE the surgery though, otherwise that dratted mother's sympathy might give him a break.
