A Different Kind of Valentines Day
My wife decided to make dental appointments for my children on Valentines Day. My son is seven and he had to have a bunch of dental work done. We are busy and didn't realize how much they had to do. He had one tooth pulled, three crowns, three fillings and two baby root canals. He did well through the whole affair, but it put a damper on his Valentines Day. He could not eat any candy or hard food the entire day.
My daughter is five and she had to have a filling on Valentines Day. She couldn't stop talking about it. She wanted to bite into some Valentines candy and eat her Valentines cookie, but she couldn't. My wife had to get her teeth cleaned. Who would have thought the whole family going to the dentist on Valentines day.
I didn't get much rest the night before, so the day is a blur. My wife got flowers and a bunch of gifts I got for her on Listia. My two girls also got flowers from me because they are my girls. My son got a giant Valentines cookie and candy from his mother which we already discussed he could not eat. I actually received a card and Valentines candy from my wife.
I don't recommend going to the dentist on Valentines Day, but our family survived and our teeth are better for it. I guess the best present my children received was knowing they only have to go back to the dentist this year to get their teeth cleaned......

My Whole Family Has a Sweet Tooth
My children love candy. My son loves chocolate bars and my daughter loves lollipops. I also love chocolate bars, the more the merrier is my motto. We all love the holidays that have something to do with candy. My children love to go trick or treating on Halloween, they love Valentines Day and they love all they chocolate bunnies they get on Easter Sunday.
We love to wait until after the holidays and search out the stores who deeply discount their candy. Target usually puts their candy on discount for 90 percent and we load up. My son and I grab all the chocolate we can handle and my daughter makes sure we get her some lollipops. We are one of those families who just can't get enough of our sweets. Our dentist hates it, but we believe it is worth the risk.
I know by now, you think my family is nuts for loving candy, but don't worry. We love chocolate bars with nuts in them too. We aren't picky. My son loves his dark chocolate the best and I love milk chocolate. My daughter likes chocolate too, but she would rather spend her time enjoying a delicious lollipop. Stop by our house sometime and we will offer you a treat. you won't be sorry.
