Poor little Harry

  Well I did it.  I did something that probably every mom does sometime in their motherhood.  While clipping Harry's fingernails, I clipped his fingers.  Yes that's right not just one, but two!  After the second one I felt SO bad that I didn't finish the last 3 nails.  I think it was the design of the new clippers I was using (He wasn't even wiggling).  Harry was so sad, and he was bleeding too.  But, I rocked him, fed him, and gave him lots of kisses and it was all better.  I felt so bad, but he seems to have recovered well.  :)  What a good boy.  Now he's just happy as a clam chewin' on his bunny ears!

Don't feel bad. They don't

Don't feel bad. They don't even let us cut the baby's fingernails in the NICU because it is such a difficult procedure. Go figure. We can stick an IV in a child but we can't trim their nails.

P.S. From Joseph: It is a parent's job to emotionally and physically scar their children.
