Ahhh, summer. The mosquitoes have hatched!! Sunday we could leave the door open because there were no bugs, and by Tuesday a cloud of mosquitoes came in the house each time the door opened. I used my legs as bait before bed to kill at least some of the flock. Is there anything worse than trying to fall asleep and hearing that familiar high pitched whine of a mosquito? It was also a good time for a rite of passage, teaching a toddler how to smack mosquitoes. All bugs are "bees" to the little one, and she got right on board with pointing out the bees for Mom to kill, but she was a little hesitant to kill them herself. It's OK. She'll learn. We have all summer to practice.
