    An Appointment and laughs, An Appointment and tears

    Todays Mood(s): Interested, Relieved, Playful, Happy, Exasperated, Tired
     
         My first appointment today, was in the south part of the city at 9:45 am for Victoria. She needed to have an ultrasound done to check her bladder because she is having recurring bladder infections. I was interested to know if they would find anything wrong, and relieved to hear that everything looked normal. We had a great laugh with the ultrasound technician though. Victoria kept asking what things on the screen were, and the technician would tell her. What gave us a laughing moment was this little piece of the conversation:
     
    Victoria: "What's that?"
    Technician: "That is your liver."
    Victoria: "Liver?"
    Thoughtful pause
    Victoria: "Don't cats eat liver?"
     
    It was not the only laughing moment she gave me today either. We got to the c-train station and were waiting for the train inside. There were about 5 other people standing around waiting as well. It was quiet, other than the sound of the escalator.
     
    Victoria: "It's so quiet in here."
    Me: "Yes it is."
    Victoria: "Why are people not talking and getting to know each other? It's great Socialism."
     
    These laughs put me in a playful mood, so when we were almost home she and I ended up playing around with the little bit of snow that is left. She was holding my hand and I would bump her with my hip so she would end up walking into little snowbanks. She in turn would scoop up little handfuls of snow and throw it on my back, or try and lead me into the snowbanks on my side of the sidewalks. We were laughing and having a great time together alone just her and I, which with 4 kids just doesn't happen often enough.
     
         My second appointment today was in the north part of the city at 1:30 pm. It was for Patrick to get his RSV shot at the Childrens Hospital. Shots hurt.... baby cries a painful cry..... makes mommies want to cry too because they know it hurts and their baby hurts at that moment. I hate it when they have to get their shots, and I'm happy he only needs one more of these ones since the cold season is almost over. His next one is on the 28th. But, he's due for his first immunizations now too....*sigh* I'm sooo NOT looking forward to it.
     
    Exasperated and tired.... I have to be up at 7 am to get Victoria ready and off to school...an appointment to get to for 11 am in the north part of the city again....and it's currently 11:20 pm and I have a 2 year old little girl who is tired but just WILL NOT go to bed.
