Today Olivia got a bee sting on her big toe. Or what I can only assume is a bee sting judging by the amount of crying, screaming, and carrying on. She had taken her shoes off outside and when she continued on longer and more insistently than usual, I headed out to check. She was stradling the side of the pool, dipping her foot in and out and crying whenever she lost her balance and put any weight on her foot. I investigated and tried to look at her toes, but she objected. Strongly. Finally, I was able to see a little tiny speck and some blood. Way too much continued crying for it to be nothing so, I treated it as for a bee sting. Hence, the bandage that is wrapping up an ice pack that was applied over a paste of soda wrapped in plastic wrap. After about an hour she was as good as new. She always bounces back quick.
