Our little enforcer

Brody is our sweet, passive child. For these first two years of his life, he's let other kids walk over him. He's constantly beat up in school- we frequently receive incident reports for him as the victim of bites and hits. He's small and sweet; a tough combination for a kid.

Before Logan was born we already sensed that he would be our little fighter. At birth, when we saw our 8lb 11oz baby with the length and feet that suggested Plummer height, we thought Logan would some day stick up for his older brother. We even thought he had a chance against his older cousin, Evelyn the Giant.

Today Logan had a chance to fight back against someone that caused him pain and he relished the opportunity. Logan had an appointment with the urologist to fix a problem resulting from him circumcism. The doctor sent us out of the room for the procedure, but it was quick and resulted in blood and Logan screaming. Logan let the doctor know what he thought of him- he peed on him. Logan hit the doc right in the middle of the chest. He managed to get the doctor's shirt and tie wet before the doc had a chance to cover Logan up. I thought it was fantastic. Our little tough guy stood up for himself before he could even hold his head up.
