brave little guy

What a busy day it has been. I took the day off today for doctor's appointments,etc. I hit the ground running this morning and haven't slowed down since. I must comment on my brave little Carter. He had to go in for a recheck of his ears this afternoon. One of the tubes was blocked, so Dr Duke had to remove the gunk that was blocking it. I never realized just how stong such a little guy can be, until it took 4 of us to hold him down. He seemed terrified while Dr Duke was taking care of it (took less than 1 minute, yet it seemed like an eternity), yet he didn't cry until it was over. He settled down after a minute and he seemed absolutely fine when the sweet nurse returned with a sucker and 2 rolls of smarties. When the next nurse gave him 10 stickers he was really pleased! I really admire him being so brave.
