Pink Polka Dots

Last night the dog howled all night and Leah spent the entire night waking up and crying. I didn't know what was wrong so I moved her to my room halfway through the night in case she was getting sick. Today the mystery was revealed. She is completely covered in Poison Ivy! That hike on Monday really got her good -- and we came straight home and took baths with poison ivy soap, too -- and staying on the path religiously -- and I was watching for it... but all of those things notwithstanding, the girl is now covered in Pink Polka Dots of calamine lotion.

"Mama, I want you to put a little more pink on me."
