Monday: The Good and The Bad of it

I always choose the Bad News first (to get it over with) so here we go...

Lauren had a dentist appointment today and the Doctor found a CAVITY.

I was crushed.  Even though Lauren brushes her own teeth, at age seven her health and well being are still my responsibility and I feel I failed her.  Lauren, however, had no idea anything was out of the ordinary.  The Dr. talked to me privately and suggested I say nothing to her. "This will make the filling of the cavity much less stressful." (Do you agree with the Doc?)

I was sent home with the paperwork for our next appointment in a couple of weeks.

White Filling, Sealants for her healthy 6-year-old molars (standard procedure,) and Nitrous Oxide.

S'cuse me?  NITROUS OXIDE?!?!

I've never had the "laughing gas" and I'm crushed my baby is going to get it.

Hopefully, I can keep myself together enough to comfort her during her next appointment

. 

  I'm getting myself upset again so now on the the Good News...

"Great News!" actually
