As the summer progresses, the heat increases.  little pools are being set up

throughout the neighborhood and one can hear many a happy child playing outdoors.          

Don’t forget the sunscreen the children. 

My youngest recieved quite a nasty burn on the tips of his ears the other day.  They blistered and are now scabbed.  I feel horible about it.  A note of advice to those with burns/ or children with burns:  you can use desatin diaper cream on the sunburned areas to extra protect them when out in the sun. The cream contains zinc oxide that helps to keep from burning more.  Keep those sweet kids safe.
