Ouch!
I stepped on a bee, while walking through the grass, (well, actually it was clover, which has totally taken over my grass). I had to actually pull the bee off of my toe!
Then it just kept stinging, with the stinger left in, and so I limped to my first aide box, saying, “oww, oww, oww…” and opened the tube of benadryl cream from last year that was sealed shut. So I limped to find the scissors which were not where they were supposed to be because the boys had just used them to open their popsicles.
I finally found them outside, and I cut off the top of the tube to find clotted cream… so I just sat down in the middle of the garage, holding my stinging toe, while my boys stared at me.
It hurt, I know, I’m a wimp….(but, I must admit that it was better stepping on a bee, then the time I sat on a bee)

You are way braver than I am. I have a near phobia of all stinging insects. Seriously…
I’m not the girlie type, but when I see a hornet or a bee or anything else that stings, I get filled with fear and screech if they fly near me.

I Hate bees too. And with three boys I don’t want them to have all the fears I have as well, so I try to mask it. So hard to do! Sometimes I feel like they gravitate to me just to scare me. I hope your toe feels better! Love you.

When Lulu got stung by a bee I gave her a sucker and all was good. Too bad you did not have a sucker. Happy Birthday. Watch your mail box for a birthday surprise.

Sitting on a bee?! Ouch!
I have never been stung by a bee before, which I know is kind of weird, but because of that I am terrified of being stung by a bee.
Good job limping around!! Sounds like fun.

I’ve never been stung by a bee, but it’s something I greatly fear.

I got stung in the mouth once but it didn’t hurt that much. I was really expecting it to bee worse… ha
hope you feel better.

[...] are celebrating by having a family party at home and possibly taking Kristin to the doctor for her stung foot. Then if she is feeling better we might grab some dinner while her dad watches the [...]

It seems like every time I get stung, I’m amazed at how much it hurts!
I hope you feel better, so you can enjoy your birthday.
