MY BOYS

Jordan (my almost 8 yr old) I would classify as a brave boy. Whenever he gets hurt he sucks it up and makes the best of it even though he Really hates pain. Jordan is a thinker! He will think about things in every way they can be thought out. If he thinks something is worth the risk he will do it, if he gets hurt while doing it.... he most likely wont do it again. He isn't grossed out by seeing horrible wounds as long as they are not his own though. He always said he wanted to be a doctor when he grew up. :) Let me add that Jordan has always been this way from the time he was a baby. You could also sit him on a floor full of pennies and he would just look at them, pick them up, ponder them and when he was done he would go find something else to quietly do.
Then there is Zane (my 2 yr old) I would classify him as ...Zane! :) Stick him in a clean room and he will find that one penny you forgot to pick up and he will eat it! He loves tasting life! Anything and everything must be licked, chewed or at the very least(if we are screaming "Dont put that in your mouth") smelled! When he gets hurt, well here is a little story of what he is like....
I broke a glass in my kitchen yesterday and i didn't get all the pieces swept up because one found his little bare foot. :( He whimpers as he says "ouch mommy, my foot". I realized right away what had happened and picked him up and set him on the counter to get a better look. It was a fairly good size and in far enough his foot was bleeding. I told him what i had to pull it out and he said "ok" and sat really still. When i pulled it out it started bleeding more (of course) and he started crying a little bit more. To calm him down i say..."Zane your foot is bleeding" (that is usually the last thing you are supposed to tell someone!) He stops crying right away and says "I wanna see, i wanna see!" I turn his little foot upward and he looks down and says "Oh. Cool." We put a band aid on it and he says "I wanna see the blood!" To get him to leave the band aid on i tell him that the blood is still there it just needs to be covered to keep germs out. "OK" and off he goes to play after he gets his kiss (his kiss is very important to him :)
