When we arrived at the doctor's office, Leo announced "Mommy's doctor". We laughed because he was right, but when I came out of treatment, he knew Mommy had a "coco" which in Spanish means an "owie"
Growing up my Mom always sang this little song anytime we were hurt, which I, in turn sing to Leo each time he gets hurt as well. It goes, "Sana, sana, colita de arana, si no sana hoy, sana manana". Which roughly translated it means, "get well, get well, tail of a frog, if you don't get well today, you'll be well tomorrow"
So of course, Leo comes up to me, rubs my side and sings "sana, sana...all better Mom" It was so sweet, because I was definitely not feeling my best and he knew that and he tried to help me. My boy...

Ow! Liz, that looks painful =(
I love the song and the image of little Leo singing it to you is precious.
That's really adorable. You have a total sweetheart for a kid.
Meantime, I hope you do, indeed, feel better tomorrow if you don't get well today.
His perceptual skills is incredible! What a great boy you have there! He's growing up to be sensitive, funny & perceptive (aka intelligent). LOVE IT!
Lizzie, that does look very painful! Little Leo is such a loving son! I too hope that it feels better soon! :)
He takes care of his mama! He's gonna be a really good big guy to have around :)
Awww, what a sweetie! I'm so sorry this hurts so much. That looks awful. But you have a sweet boy to put on numbing cream with you ;)
What a sweet boy! But that sure looks painful, no wonder he was worried about you!
