My daughter was with me today at the hospital when they drew blood from me. She watched them stick the needle in and asked"does it hurt mommy?" I told her no. And she kept watching the nurse tech very closely and asking her questions. The nurse kindly told she wouldn't hurt me. My daughter said " I know you won't, that is why I am here" The nurse gave her a sticker when she was done with me. LOL my body guard is my 5 year old!

Aww, that is sweet.Yeah my little sister is my guard dog. She will protect me even though it might mean she gets hurt and that is what I am afraid of. I always tell her it is me who is supposed to protect her but she says I protect you ..So I call her my little guardian angel..

Yup, daughters are protective towards their Moms. I dunno about sons, but I guess they could be too. Though I feel that sonny boys are more dependent. But daughters are real protective. I was when I was a kid. I used to "take revenge" on everybody I felt hurt my Mom. It got me into a lot of trouble. Even now, I feel protective, and my Mom is 25 years my senior. Funny, eh?
Cheers and happy mylotting

Needlesticks always hurt. I tell this plainly to my daughter. I want to be honest with her. Not everyone agrees with my approach. Still, when it came to getting the flu shot I let her watch me get stuck and I didn't react. My idea was to let her know that it is a needle stick, but it's nothing to get alarmed over. A little thing.

I remember my daughter when she was just a kid, when my migraine pop up I just can't stand the severe pain on my head. I am usually just in bed.She stays with me in bed asked me if I had taken my medicine. she would bring it to me together with a glass of water. She would massage my head and frequently asked if I am okey. She would bring me food and when I fall asleep I would feel sleeping beside me. It makes me feel better even though I am irritable with the pain I just have to fight for it for I feel her concern with me.As a mother we don't like that our kids would feel uneasy when something is wrong with us. Thank you my baby for being there for me. I love you!

my kids have all been very protective of me. even sometimes toward each other like if one thinks the other has done something to hurt my feelings.
