Bad Luck Boy continues his woes… After a fun morning of playing in the sprinkler, popscicles and then splashing in the water table, Josiah tangled with a wasp on the back
\nporch. He’s got 2-3 stings on his cheek\/by his ear and 2 on his
\nwrist, probably from trying to swat it away. What screams \ud83d\ude41 I held it
\ntogether to get some ice on the ONE sting I saw, but then I unraveled
\nwhen I saw the others a few minutes later. Man, I feel so bad. Of
\ncourse, he’s fine. Back to his normal self, minus the slightly swollen
\nstings. Thank goodness its naptime here, bc I don’t know about the kids, but I’m exhausted.<\/p>\n
**By this evening, the stings were hardly even noticeable, though Josiah was full of chatter about the bugs. Analise was full of discussion about his experience, too, and we had a serious talk about NOT swatting bugs away, but calling for mommy or daddy and walking away without bothering the bugs. Brian’s dad – my HERO – came this afternoon to spray the hidden wasp nest, where there were two big red wasps hanging out between the eave and the gutter. Whew – enough excitement for one day! Hopefully we can keep my boy from trouble for a few days \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
