One boy, one knife, one lesson learned

Me - "Hey buddy, did they use the gel to freeze it before they gave you a shot?"
Austin - "No, they stuck a needle right through it...(a few seconds pass) Mom, aren't you mad at me?"
Me - "No hunny."
Austin - "Why not, I was playing with a knife."
Me - "I think that was lesson enough."

Sometimes as a mother I am obligated to say stuff and then thankfully sometimes there is nothing left to say...
