Yes, it is unusual to see a bubbled
syringe under the title "Smile" as there are so many children who
view this as a torturing device. They
run and hide, fidget, scream . . . and why would a mother look upon this
reminder of such dramatic uncooperativeness as something that would put a smile
on her face? She wouldn't. But I was blessed with a child who was more
than cooperative. Jenna enjoyed the
bubbled syringe. Unlike most children,
Jenna was amused by this devise. It must
have tickled her nose when I attempted to suck out the snot. She also laughs about Vick's vapor rub
because "it smells funny" - and not "funny" as in
questioning the expiration date of a product.
Whenever I try to rub it on her she does squirm - but only because she
is laughing so hard claiming that it tickles her. Weird.
But awesome. I don't know of any
other mother who has shared this same experience.
