Big Shot

S & N had appointments to get the shots they missed last month when they had ear infections at their well-child visit to the pediatrician.
"I not sick," protested S when I told him.
"Right," I tried to explain, "these are the shots you didn't get the day you went to the doctor's when you were well because you were, as it turned out, too sick to get them."
I didn't make any sense to me either.
No wonder they cried.
