Scorpion in Brooke's hair


Around 4:30am Sept. 24th, I was awakened by a sharp pain in my upper arm bicep area. About a minute later I felt something crawling in my hair, and that something turned out to be a scorpion! AHHHHHHHH! It stung me 4 times (head, arm twice & finger) and my arm and face went numb and I felt pretty yucky for a couple of days. So I learned the hard way about what they say about scorpions are true...it "does" hurt when they sting you!! We're so thankful it didn't get one of the kids!

That has got to hurt! I'm sorry! I hope you're feeling back to normal now, and that you had a good b-day! It's great to keep in touch with you! =)

Yikes! Scorpions scare me. I thought it would do a lot more than make you sick, especially to be stung four times.

That is the CRAZIEST story! I hope you are feeling well now and I'm so grateful it didn't bite any of your kids.

I tried sending you a bday card but it bounced back for some reason. Happy belated birthday!
