4 shots

T got four shots today.  She didn't want to get them.  I had to grab her face and look into her eyes and tell her why she was getting them....one shot is very very important, the DTaP is something that your brother, Nelyn, never got because he was to young, but he died of Pertussis and I don't want you to get it.  Momma got pertussis too and it is very, very scary the way you cough and cough and can't breath right afterwards.  So, yes it's going to hurt and yes you will cry, but you will not get sick with any of these diseases that you get a shot for because you are vax'd against them.

She got 4 pink band-aids to cover her owies and I made her show me her legs when we got home.
