Another Reason to Have Aspirin

Noah got his very first bee sting today. Actually he got two at the same time, lucky boy. I was visiting with my grandparents when it happened, and since I have never in my life been stung by a bee, I didn't know what to do. Good thing my grandma did. She crushed up an aspirin and mixed it with a little water and covered the stings. The swelling was gone in about 5 minutes. I was shocked! I know baking soda does the same thing, but who wants to carry baking soda in their diaper bag? So, I will now be carrying an aspirin with me, along with all the other "just in case" items.
