Cepheus went for his last MMRV jab

this wednessday.  I was worried that he may cry during the jab and i decided not to drive as such as i will be bringing him alone to the clinic, however, luckily my dad drove us there instead else i may end up waiting for a cab with a crying toddler in hand.  However, much to my surprise, while at the clinic, i was pinning Cepheus down as he was struggling abit as he doesnt like to be pinned down.  I was also looking away and consoling him not to cry when the PD told me "OK done."  I was like "huh?  you sure?  but he never even cry!" Cepheus was expressionless throughout the jab and he just looked at me blankly when i pulled him up from the table.  The PD and her helper laughed and said that Cepheus was a brave boy! Doesnt even cry!  Cepheus have really grown, and as he grew older, his skin also grew thicker.. more thick skinned in terms of not being so shy anymore after being trained in school, more sociable.. and also thicker skin in terms of not feeling any pain when being whacked or jabbed, haha..

Cepheus is those 吃软不吃硬 kind of character.  when we beat him at home and he is angry, he will refuse to cry and just stare at us angrily or start to throw tantrums by throwing things around etc.  Sometimes just abit slapping on his thigh or palm which doesnt hurt at all will send him crying his eyes out.  He is not crying in pain but more of getting upset of getting scolded.  When he fall down etc or sometimes getting a tighter slap from us he doesnt even cry if he doesnt feel upset.. sometimes i wonder if he will cry in future if he is caned.. I used to think that i will start to cane him after one year old or two year old, but seeing his character, seems like caning may not help afterall and may aggravate his stubborn character.  These days kids are really so much smarter than us in olden times whereby caning means everything.  Now, Cepheus can even snatch the 'ruler' (which Ferris threaten to act as a cane at times) when he saw it on the table or in our hands and hid it behind him.. and telling us "NO NO NO".. sigh..we are going to have a tough time taking him in hand in the future i think..
