We got home a few minutes ago from the dentist. They called me at 8:00 this morning asking if I could be there by 8:30. I live twenty minutes away and Sam was still sleeping and the girls were still in the pj's and I had just gotten out of the shower so my hair was sopping wet. I some how managed to get everyone presentable and we got to the dentist at 8:35. We were all looking pretty rough, but we made it there. I think poor Sam looked the worst. He was so tired and his eyes were so swollen and puffy from crying. The dentist was amazing. I was nervous because this office likes to take the kids back without the parents so they can build that trust with the kids and I was not sure if Sam (or myself) was going to be OK with that policy. He went back without any tears, from Sam anyway, and they did x-rays. He had three teeth right in a row that were bad. The tooth in the middle was really bad and they ended up having to pull that tooth. They put a filling in the other two so he should not be having any more pain from those teeth after a few days. I was so thankful because they ended up having a cancellation this morning during the time we were there so they were able to get the things done that they needed to help with his pain. We ended up being there for three hours but my friend came and got Emma about an hour into our wait. Emma is not as patient in situations like that so thankfully she was able to go with someone. Samuel was so brave and I cannot tell you how proud I am of him. He usually would freak out when put in that situation and he did great. I am just so thankful that I was able to find a place that was so great to my child. He is fast asleep on the couch and I hope he can get some rest. Jeremy is coming home early so I can rest too. I am actually surprised that I am typing coherent sentences (well at least I think I am.) Thanks for all your prayers!!
Well I will give a brief recap of our weekend. Friday I ended up having to take the cats to animal control. I felt terrible about it but all the shelters said they were filled and could not take on any more animals. I also forgot to mention on Friday that on top of all those things I had to get done that it was POURING down rain. I managed to get everything done but it was so exhausting. Saturday we had state competition for church. Janna came over and kept the girls and we took Sam. Our teens did so great and actually won 4 things so we are now making plans to go to the National in July. After competition we came home got the girls and went back toward Nashville to pick up the kids pictures that we had taken Easter weekend. That is a frustrating story that I am too tired to share, but we got the pictures and they turned out really cute. On the way home we stopped at Jeremy's parents to show off the pictures and we is not get home until about 8:00. We were up early for church Sunday and then went to eat at Chili's after church. We then went to see Jacob and Lynsey's new house and then we met at the church to get the teens and go to Ronald McDonald House. We were all so exhausted and we thought we would get some rest last night but that did not quite work out. Well I thought I took more pictures this weekend but I only got one of the girls in their matching dress. Emma refused to smile. Well I am going to try to rest for a few minutes. Please pray that Sam sleeps well tonight and that his mouth will feel better.
