{I love this story}
Last week Jack and I found a
shark pod at the beach.
I found it nestled in some seaweed, just waiting for me
to teach an impromptu science lesson.
Jack listened with wide eyes as I told him how
a baby shark had grown in this little bulge.
"Where'd go Mama?" Jack asked.
"The shark lives in the ocean now." I told him.
And with that he was back to playing at the water's edge.
Not 10 minutes later, I heard Jack cry out in pain.
When I asked him what the matter was he told me
a shark had bitten him!
"Are you sure?"
"Yep..."
He didn't act hurt so I dismissed the whole thing
as fallout from our shark lesson and Jack
went back to digging in the sand.
20 minutes later he told me again he'd
been bitten by a shark. I rolled my eyes, but
noticed he was limping. So I picked him up
and grabbed his left leg to find a bee's stinger
sticking out of the side.
Jack's little leg puffed up quite a bit,
I bet you didn't know "shark bites" swell!
Darn those sharks.

AWWWWWW!!!! Poor Jack!!! He is REALLY cute though!!!!
Kids are so funny! That's a great story. But sorry about the bee sting. I hope his little leg is feeling better.

Ouch! Poor little guy.
I am sooo sorry! I feel so bad! I want to see him so badly! I hope that he is felling better! Give him a BIG kiss for me! Give one to Jilley too!
What timing! To get stung by a bee after the whole shark lesson. I hope his leg is feeling better.
Wow that looks terrible... you may want to ask the doc about an Epi pen. reactions to bee stings get worse with each sting. My foot did that a couple years ago with a sting and the doc gave me an epi pen just to be safe.
