A Hard Day Indeed



On November 17th, John and I had to take Kaylee to get blood work done, and a lead test. I was thinking that since she was so young it would be a simple poke in her finger. But it was blood drawn from the arm. I held her on my lap in the seat and of course she immediately began to cry. John held her free arm while two nurses drew some blood. Once this was done, we went to get her some ice cream but she wasn't going for it. She ended up crying herself to sleep and I laid with her at home while she slept. I was really shaken myself. My fear of needles and of course watching my 1 year old go through this scary moment was horrible. But once she woke up, she was just fine. I still took her downtown and got her some toy cars which she loves. I was soo thankful for John. Brian felt bad that he couldn't get out of work and I just didn't want to do this alone so John brought us and as we waited he pushed Kay up and down the hallway in the wheelchair which she thought was pretty cool.

On November 20th I got a call from Kaylee's doctor and all was just perfect with her test. No Lead and nothing out of the ordinary. I'm so thankful that's over.
