Nicholas' 4 year appointment was interesting- he had his first eye and ear exam and thankfully both went fine. We waited for what seemed like forever to see the actual doctor, and while we were waiting I realized it must have been a tough day for the doctor's- lots of screaming, crying, and upset kids. Nicholas kept saying "those kids are really freaking out" while we waited and played games, read books, and talked.
When Dr. Newman came in with a smile he said "thank goodness I'm in here, now I can have some peace." Nicholas' appointment went well, nothing new or exciting to report. He is about 40 pounds and I can't recall his height right now, but he's looking pretty tall to me ;). We are lucky in that he is rarely sick (thanks for the great genes, 'rents!) so it was more of just a yearly check up to see if we had any questions.
The doctor said two things that I never want to forget.
Number One: To a 4 year old, his Mom is the world. Remember the days when he is so sweet and innocent and loves nothing but his Mama. It might be tough when he's a teen, but at football games, sons don't wave to their Dad, they wave to their Mom. You will always be his biggest cheerleader.
Secondly, as he was leaving the appointment, he said that Nicholas was complete and utter joy. <3
