Readers-
Hi, it's Daniel. I haven't written in a while and I thought I would grace the pages for a second. I learned a couple of years ago about a great "home remedy" and now that spring has sprung it's time to share it with the world. Since I have a blog, I can share it with all of our illustrious readers. That should be enough anticipation, here's the tip:
If (I should say, when) you are bitten by a mosquito, spray the bite with deodorant and it will not itch anymore. Note- It has to be a deodorant that has antiperspirant in it. The aluminum in the antiperspirant will do something to the histamine to stop the bite from itching.
That's it. Nothing grand, but it turns out to be a very useful tip. Happy Spring.

What a great tip! I had never heard it either, so it makes it super good. :) I can't think of a tip right now except that we have 4 of the "owie" kid cold packs in the fridge at all times for owies. But with 2 little ones, I'm sure you already know that one. :)

I've heard of that before, but keep forgetting to actually try it! Thanks for the reminder!
Andrea - Thanks for your sweet comments and prayers. :)
I found a link for the boo boo buddy. We got ours at Target and it's the nemo one, although they have lots of characters / shapes & colors. My kids could NOT live without ours! :)

Thank you for the tip, it will definitely come in handy!
I've discovered Apple Cider Vinegar for allergies. This stuff is amazing! You mix 1/8 of a teaspoon into water, my kids and I prefer juice, and drink it up to three times a day. It will instantly stop my sneezing and runney nose. It's helped my 12 year old son out too. That's my tip. Pass it on!
