If they cut themselves, for instance, I would feel this twisting pain...it's a strange sensation. I do it with my husband too. <BR/>Laura sounds so sweet and stoic. I'll bet she's a lot like her mum :) Loved your descriptions, as usual Jelly :)Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1145708236288358372006-04-22T22:17:00.000+10:002006-04-22T22:17:00.000+10:00I love your spirit,your precious.I love your spirit,your precious.somershadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01448712118136599712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1145678573618293072006-04-22T14:02:00.000+10:002006-04-22T14:02:00.000+10:00A dentist who is good with children is a treasure....A dentist who is good with children is a treasure. But hats off to the kids who just front up and open up wide. Our youngest has large teeth, not all of which fit in his mouth. He's had to have a number extracted over the years. One time the dentist rang to say there was an appointment free, could I get Ben there in an hour's time? I rang the music school where Ben was having a lesson, and asked them to tell Ben to get off the tram at the dentist's, and I'd pick him up there. Little did he know that he was in for yet another extraction on the way home from his music lesson! I've always been pretty stoic myself, but liked the days of laughing gas...Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04456736523331076619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1145617372787244552006-04-21T21:02:00.000+10:002006-04-21T21:02:00.000+10:00wow.

They are more likely to whine to us but then be fearless in the face of strangers. The dentist is a scarey place, especially for a little child. I am sure you told her how proud you are of her!TUFFENUFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857786656471454329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1145524030206940002006-04-20T19:07:00.000+10:002006-04-20T19:07:00.000+10:00Such a brave little girl.

Most kids her age would still be screaming as you tried to get them in the chair and a shot too - Mom you must have raised her right - of course I know they all have their own personalities. Tell her one of your bloggers from the other side of the world thinks she is a very brave girl.doubleknothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770447988787944018noreply@blogger.com
