Together time

Vern and I got to spend some quality time together and I have to say it was nice.

Over the weekend Vern was having multiple nose bleeds. These come and go and are difficult to stop sometimes. After this weekend's 3 inch clot, I thought it was time to visit the doctor with our vacation soon upon us. Neither of us need major nosebleeds on an airplane.
So I made the family doctor appointment for 8am and Vern came to work with me! He enjoyed missing some school and was the B-E-S-T little man. He read quietly, met my friends when I showed him off and was very polite. (Hey that is one of his spelling words this week. --- Oh I digress.) We had a great time together. Then it was off to the first appointment. Like expected the family doc recommended we go to an ENT to get it looked at.

The nurse said there was an available appointment down the street at 10 am. I took it so I didn't have to incur more driving and time off work. We came back to work until it was time for the second appointment. I did some work and Vern watched, jabbered, and did a bit more homework. We both were happy!

Next we were off to the ENT. The appointment went very well. Vern was brave and did a great job holding still for the procedure. I was so proud of him! After the appointment I dropped him off at school and I went back to work - both of us smiling.  Item to note: there were at least 2 different people (nurse and lunch ladies) that I remember talking to about Vern's beautiful eyes.  He knows how to use those eyes too, with those long lashes. ZOWIE.  It is one of his best features.

Then at home last night after dinner and his jobs were complete, he asked me to go for a walk. I, of course, said yes.  We walked. We talked. He HELD - MY - HAND.  I was mush. See how he can melt even a hard-core mom like me.  I am sure that will get him through life.

Signed,
The proud, mushball, loving my son Mom.
