The cost was more expensive than last year, but our company offers it to employee as one of the welfare.
That was helpful for me.
After we came home, I told my children about it.
"I got a shot at the hospital today. Do you think what kind of shot I got?"
My 6-year-old son answered,
"The shot for growing up!"
"Oh-oh, it's wrong. I don't want to grow up any more!"
The word "to grow up" may include the meaning "to get fat" in Japanese by context.
My 5-year-old daughter answered,
"The shot for getting sick!"
"No way! We usually get a shot to prevent getting sick!"
I realized that they didn't understand the meaning of immunization that they got many so far.
"OK. I will give you a hint. It was a vaccination of something, starting from "i"."
My son said,
"I got it! It's Influenza!"
"That's correct! I have not booked yours yet, but I should do it soon."
My daughter turned pale.
"No! I don't like injection. I am scared! I hate a pain!"
"Yeah, me too. I don't like injection. But I put up with it today. It finished only for 3 seconds."
She said,
"Yeah, but I am scared..."
I said,
"You were in panic and acted too violent last year, so nurses and I had to hold you. Do you remember it? I believe you can bear it this year because you are already 5 years old. You have grown up. And you will get a shot to prevent flu. You don't want to get a flu, don't you?"
"I hate both the injection and the disease both."
She answered.
There's a lot of truth in what she said.
"I agree. But..."
My persuasion lasted more than 15 minutes, and finally she said,
"I got it!"
It will become a hard time for her this year again.
