Perry vs. the Needle

Perry needed a filling on a tooth. They numbed it first with a frighteningly large needle. While i know logically that it’s better for him to get the shot and avoid the pain of the work ahead... but the Mama Bear in me wanted to karate chop that needle out of the dentist’s hand and run off with my boy! The longer he pressed that needle into my sons mouth the harder it was for me to do nothing. Luckily Perry was a champ!! He didn’t even flinch! He said later “That needle HURT. But I only let one little tear fall out.”

He's so brave. You’re the man Perr Berr!
