Yesterday I took Izzie to get her school immunizations. She is totally pumped about going to pre-k next year and knows that the shots are a necessary step. She understood that it was going to hurt a little and was pretty brave until she saw the needle. It was at this point that she fell apart. Panic and fear set in. It was all I could do to hang onto her. When it was all over, poor Izzie was a sobbing mess. The kind nurse offered to get her a popsicle and asked her which color she wanted. "Purple," was her reply. As the nurse exits the room Izzie mutters,"Thank you for giving me a checkup."
BTW, this picture was taken before the shots. We didn't take a post shot picture.
