This isn't a great picture and you can't see very well, but the other morning we work up to Diya's face looking like this:
MOSQUITOES! They are BAD this year! We've had more rain this August than we have had in 15 years! All that extra rain means there are extra mosquito breeding grounds -ugh! Dengue fever is bad this year! According to the newspaper, this time last year there were 4 reported cases of Dengue, but this year there are 674! These mosquitoes are tricky! Diya sleeps with a mosquito net, but one tricky mosquito hid in her pack-n-play under the middle level of the bed and bit her... so sad :( Please lift us us and pr that none of us get Dengue fever!!!
