The thing about being a parent is that life doesn’t always follow your script. Okay, sometimes it’s more like rarely follows your script. 😉
My son had his tonsil & adenoid surgery yesterday. Poor kid had to spend 3+ hours in the waiting room because the surgeon was behind schedule. He was so hungry and thirsty. I really felt for the even younger kids who were waiting. At least you can tell an 8 year old why he has to wait.
In all honesty, the surgery was more difficult for him than I expected. Tonsilectomies are so common it seems like it’s no big deal. Well, it’s a pretty big deal to the kid who has it. :crossfingers:
