Family affair
There was only one dad at the kindergarten open house yesterday.
MFH had planned to attend, but then a nasty tooth got in the way. He had a root canal gone bad, and ended up having a molar pulled. It had broken in half within his jaw. You know it had to be hopeless, because I have never met a dentist that would pull a tooth.
What surprised me even more than the just one dad, however, was the number of grandmas in the room. I know they were grandmas because let's face it - at 48 I have to be one of the oldest mothers of a five year old in existence.

I'm headed to this 'meet and greet' for my son's school in 2 hours. And when I was there for another function a few months ago, I was the youngest mother there. Everyone else was early 40's and not very interested in speaking with me. :)
I'm hoping today isn't like that. Sigh.
