Dear Juliet,
Today was a big day for both of us, it was your first vaccination. I know it might be hard for you to understand now, but these vaccines are so important to keep you safe and healthy. I couldn't wait to have you vaccinated, but at the same time, I was so nervous. I didn't want you to be scared or to cry, but I knew that it was something that had to be done.
The doctor came to our house to administer the shots, which made me feel a little bit better. I knew that you would be more comfortable in your own surroundings, and I wanted to make the experience as easy as possible for you. But as soon as the needle went in, you let out the most heart-wrenching cry. It broke my heart to see you in pain, but I knew that it was for your own good. I tried my best to comfort you, and I held you close, whispering words of encouragement and love.
Even though it was difficult to see you crying, I couldn't help but feel proud of you for being so strong and brave. You're such a little fighter, and I know that you'll be able to handle whatever life throws your way.
It's important to mention that it will take two weeks for the vaccines to actually protect you and during this time we'll have to be extra careful with your contact with others. But I know that it's worth it to keep you safe and healthy.
As a mom, it's hard to see my baby in pain, but I know that it's important to protect you and keep you healthy. I trust the doctors and the science behind vaccinations and I believe that it's the right thing to do.
It's been a few hours now since the vaccination and you're back to your happy self. I can see you smiling, playing and discovering the world around you. Even though it was a difficult moment, I am reminded that this little pinch of pain is for a bigger good, and that you will be able to enjoy life to the fullest, protected from potential harm.
I love you so much Juliet, you are my world. And I will always do what's best for you, even if it means a few tears.
Love,Jazmin
