Big and brave!

Kindegarten shots... does mom dread them more than Nat?  In this case, yes.  I was preparing Nat for a couple of weeks that she needed to get her needle before kindegarten, and that it would be a little pinch.  I even pinched her to show her how much it would not hurt.  But, to be honest, I was extremely nervous as I was afraid of the reaction (and the future trauma) that the needles would create.  Well, Nat was extremely brave, and she said the needles didn't even hurt (I think the second might have hurt just a little).  Not sure what I was so worked up about.

As a treat for being so brave, I took Nat to Starbucks for a frap.  She clearly enjoyed it. 

Way to go Nat.  You're growing bigger every day, and we're so proud of you!
