I Hate My Mouth!

I hate my mouth. Or, I guess I should say, I hate my mom's genes. She had to pass them on to me!!!! Braces, surgery, a chain, hurting teeth and gums- all because of my mouth. The surgery sucked. I have never had surgery until now and it was weird. I woke up and I was all dizzy and couldn't walk!!!! It wasn't completely bad. I was actually kind of angry because insurance wouldn't pay for kids older than seven to have anesthesia! I'm almost twelve! (Two months more!!) But still, a lot of kids get braces and stuff around my age and older. So why don't they have this thing figured out where they pay for anesthesia for older kids? It was so unfair.

I have to admit, this Summer has been crazy. My parents did Pickleball and Tennis in the Summer Games (Mom won a silver medal), I've had five sleepover nights with my cousins, painted a giant turtle statue and a little frog statue with my cousins, Dad, Carter and Riley went camping, Mom and I had a girls' night, I've walked with Kassidy (my cousin) from one Grandmother's house to the other, I did Summer Band from nine to ten a.m., rode my bike from my house to my grandma Cathy's house and I can think of so much more!!! It's crazy, but I survive.

And how many people get to say they painted a giant turtle? Well, I do. My cousins, Kassidy and Karina helped me paint a giant statue of a turtle. We were at my grandmother's house and she need the turtle painted so we painted it. It took us hours, but we did it.
