Stung

Olivia was in the back yard playing in her kiddie pool last weekend. She came in and headed to the bathroom, then ran right back out to me, screaming, "It feels like there's a thorn on my bum!" We took off her swimsuit, and a wasp crawled out of it. Poor girl! Her first sting -- right on the derriere. There were a few tears, but mostly after she saw the wasp, so I think it was sheer horror more than pain. She's a tough kid. Plus, a little Benadryl fixed her right up.

Oh, poor Livvy! Hopefully it doesn't swell up like Claire's mosquite bite. At least she'd have a cute lopsided bum!

That is crazy! I can't believe she had a wasp in her swimsuit - I would have been a little horrified by that!

Oh sad but there is a Shel Silverstein poem to which she might relate. I hope it doesn't hurt long.
