Well, eventually it does, but why does everyone lump together?
My kids missed most of last week due to strep. Michael picked Eshiva up today because they think she has the pox. I am hoping she does, and we’ll verify it at the doc this afternoon. I hope it is, and I hope the boys get it too. Still sucks.
I wrapped up my dental till at least the end of March this morning. Last week I had a gum transplant (yah, ouch) and this week I had a filling and a spackling. The tooth I’ve been looking at for 20 some years is now smooth. Weird. It had a little indentation at the top – not a cavity, just an imperfection. The dentist wanted to “fill it” to prevent gum problems as it was right at the gum line. I go back to the perdiodontist in a month for a last check up, then a cleaning, then braces! I think I’ll be sticking to a cleaning every 3 months from now on. It’s deductible, right? 
Michael goes in next Monday for some basic dental stuff as well. I think we can drive our teeth now 
I know some of you know how that is.
We had a lovely dinner out last night. We got all dolled up and had a fabulous dinner at Melting Pot.
Dorian made honor roll this quarter. He started guitar lessons yesterday. He gets his braces in about a month. Oh, and he’s all of 6 or 7 inches shorter than me. The boys eats like a horse and is growing like a weed.
Malachai lost another tooth yesterday morning (his third) and it’s been hanging on by a thread for a week. I’m surprised it took so long. The tooth fairy forgot to come last night, but she made a surprise appearance (delayed due to snow in the North East) and left two golden dollar coins. He was thrilled. The boy loves coins. You have no idea how much the boy loves coins lol He got a citizenship award this quarter in school and is not currently trying to outgrow me as much as his brother is
Eshiva is being retested in school so we can have a parent-teacher conference so they can tell me my child is a genius. She is super cute in her recital dress, but is otherwise an annoying five year old little girl. Those of you with girls know exactly what I am talking about. Those of you with boys, be happy! Seriously, the boys at five did absolutely nothing to prepare me for a girl at five. Nothing. I want to sell her to the gypsies at a discount price at least once a day. Too bad they don’t want five year old little girls either.
I have been obsessed with RuPaul’s Drag Race (http://rupaulsdragrace.com) and missing my old friends. I think Michael is tired of it, but hey, it’s entertaining at least. Last seasons queen’s were bien mieux than this seasons I miss Nina lol She was my kind of queen. You should check it out if you haven’t. It’s on Logo, last season they aired on Lifetime (? no, but it aired on a reg. cable channel last season but I can’t remember which one, sorry! Maybe VH1?) but I think they are showing them on the website after they air on Logo.
So, that wraps me up. I’ve been nursing sick children all week, and I suspect I’ll be doing the same in the coming week.
