So it has been a while. Today, Tayson had to go to his 5 year doctor appointmen to get his Kindergarten shots. We have been getting ready for the event for several weeks now and every few days Tayson would ask me...
Tayson: So is the shot going to hurt?
Me: Not too bad! (I didn't want to freak him out.)
Tayson: What will it feel like?
Me: Like a pinch...kind of like this (and then I would pinch him.)
Tayson: Ouch...that isn't so bad
Well today the truth was discovered and I don't think Tayson will ever trust me again...
Just after the shots were given...Tayson still crying...
Tayson: Mom, that didn't hurt a little, that hurt ALOT! I don't ever what to come back here again.
Mom: I know it hurt but does it still hurt?
Tayson: Not really!
Me: Then why are you crying?
Tayson: Cause it hurt...I don't EVER want to come here AGAIN!
Mom: Well you don't have to get anymore shots...you are all done.
Tayson: Ok, I'll come back then! I always get a sucker when I come!
Go figure! My kid isn't a fool! Hope he can trust me again...one day he will understand why I didn't elaborate on how much the shot would hurt...I was protecting him from weeks of torture waiting for the day to arrive...or I was just protecting myself from having to drag a 5 year old into the doctor's office...heheh! Either way, I'm glad it is over.
