Every five years, teachers in Virginia are required to renew their teaching license. As part of my licensure renewal, I had to take a First Aid and CPR course, which I completed last night.
This morning, as we were all getting ready for work/school, I told my family that I had an announcement to make: I could now save their lives in a medical emergency.
I heard Brad whisper to Hannah, "No, she couldn't."
So I started to defend myself by listing off my new skill-set: rigid splints, soft splints, compression wraps, Epi-pen administration, CPR, stop bleeding, and the use of an AED.
Brad especially didn't believe that I could operate an AED. So he asked me, "What does AED stand for?"
To which I replied, "I don't know, but I know how to use one to save your life."
He laughed, I laughed, Hannah laughed, and then Brad shared that he knew that I wouldn't know the answer to that question before he even asked.
"Notice how Daddy makes fun of me?" I asked Hannah.
"Yeah...I noticed that a long time ago!" she giggled.
