The mosquitoes are think in my neck of the woods right now. Nathan is pretty allergic to them, he swells up huge and then can't stop scratching. He scratches so much that they bleed, scab over, scratches more, and finally leaves a beauty of a scar. I put band-aids over the bites and that seems to keep him from scratching. They are the real band-aids that I bought at Costco that are super sticky and will even hold up through a bath. They work pretty well. Last Monday the kiddos played in the backyard quite a while and when they came in Nathan was eaten alive. Check out this guy. I think we counted over 30 bites. I used one band-aid to cover up multiple bites.
Danielle also managed to get some bites. My kiddos have been so wonderful and have tried to let me get some sleep. Instead of waking me to talk to me, they will write me a note and leave in on the bed beside where I am sleeping. Of course they bump the bed and slam the door shut as they are leaving, but have really good intentions. This is the note that Danielle left for me. I thought it was so cute!
interpretation: " Mom, I have 2 mosquito bites. I want to be happy but my mosquito bites itch."
