Today was Amelia's appointment for her flu shot. She started crying when I picked her up from child care, wailed in the car the whole way there, had me call her father so she speak about her fear, wrapped herself around me in the waiting room.... We get in the examination room and I ask the nurse to please do this as quickly a possible. The nurse sticks her skinny little thigh and Amelia pops up and declares:
"That was quick!"
And marches out of the exam room in perfectly good humor. She was rewarded with a dish of ice cream for her bravery.

From there off we went to the Capitol where it was time to light the Capitol Christmas tree. Like last year we had a surprise visitor, Santa, who naturally heard all about Amelia's flu shot!
