Lynndee …he needs to grow up and get tough because our visit to his dentist yesterday was a little annoying; the work to be done was only halfway accomplished due to his fear. Let me tell you the story.
The plan was to have two of his molars filled and one molar extracted because that’s what the dentist advised us during his check up last week when he was suffering from a toothache and gum swelling. Yogi was a good boy from the start of the tooth filling. The dentist was all praise for him for being a good boy and had given him a new toothbrush as a prize.
But when the time that the dentist was going to pull out the tooth – the extraction forceps already holding the tooth, Yogi pushed her hand away and started crying while covering his face. It went on like that for about 10 minutes, and during that time we kept on wooing him and offering him all the bribes we could think of including a Royal Caribbean trip, a Disneyland trip, a trip to the toy store, etc. But unfortunately, he didn’t buy it. So, we had to surrender because there was nothing at all we could do.
Oh well! Yogi was not a good boy today. I just hope he’s not going to whine when his tooth will ache again or I’ll surely take dad to the dentist with us so Yogi will comply. He’s kind of scared of his grandfather and always obeys him. (“,)
