The Little Hive-y Mermaid


I was playing with Amelie yesterday when I noticed her face looked funny (like she had too much sun or something?) and upon closer inspection realized her face and arms were covered with hives! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Apparently she had some allergic reaction to who knows what! I called the doctor's office to get the correct dosage of Benedryl for a 3 yo (it's NOT on the package) and no one was available so they made me call the emergency room! It wasn't a big deal and she was feeling/acting fine (just itchy, poor little lamb) but it was one of those things that just reminds you that life is so changeable and a little scary sometimes. I'm so glad that the One who is in control of my life and of my precious babies' lives is unchangeable.
Amen and pass the benedryl!

It's funny isn't it..when it's your own you panic a bit. I worked for a peds office, so I know quuite a bit but when it happens to one of mine, all knowledge and reason goes right out the window and out of my brain!! LOL!!
