Me: Breckin, do you want to see what Daddy gave me for my birthday?
Breckin: Sure, Mommy.
(I get the present out)

This morning, Breckin got off to a rough start. He was throwing his second tantrum in one hour because I gave him a banana for breakfast after he had asked me for a……banana. Anyway, here is how the conversation went.

Remember a while back, I mentioned Breckin’s ridiculously large tonsils. Well, once I had the appointment with the specialist and scheduled the surgery to have them removed, I was informed that our insurance wouldn’t cover it until we had their plan for a year. So we had to wait 6 months. The [...]
