What kind of mother am I?

I am a flu fighting fool! I surprised Mariah when I picked her up around lunch today. I had to break her heart though when I told her we were all going to get a flu shot. I couldn't tell her in advance because she would get all worked up and worried. Mariah accepted the fact that she had to get a flu shot this year. However, when we were taken back to the exam room they sweet nurse told us that since Mariah and Trent were between the ages of 6 months and 8 years and this was their first flu shot ever, that the two of them have to have a booster in a month! Mariah was devastated after the news. She did so very well and I am very proud of her. She wanted me to go first, then Trent, then Mariah and then Brent. Brent is convinced that the actual flu was injected into us and we will get it! I have told him over and over that it is an inactive strand and it WON'T give us the flu. Yes we can still get it, a different strand of flu than we were injected with, but I think it's always better to be safe than sorry. I especially wanted to be extra precautious with Trent in daycare and Mariah going to school. There are so many things that get spread with little kids running around! Here are pictures of our battle wounds!
