Tough Girl

Dear Lila,

Your pediatrician needs to check your lead level so you had to have blood drawn today. It was the first time you'd ever had blood drawn and your veins are still so teeny tiny that the nurse had a lot of trouble finding a big enough vein and poked you with the needle several times before she finally found one. That alone must have hurt like crazy and then you had to sit still for a couple minutes while she took your blood. But you were so brave! You whimpered when the nurse first stuck the needle into your arm but then you took it like a champ and didn't even cry. My tough girl!

Love,
Mom
