those are some big bed bugs! · tonight while putting taylor to bed we went through the well-known "good night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite" rhyme. then i asked, "what's a bed bug anyway, how do we know if we have any?"

"oh daddy," came taylor's reply, "mema and papa have those! papa throws them out on the concrete and stomps them!"

i laughed and laughed (and taylor wanted to know what was so funny). i haven't seen them myself, but in the summertime when ritina and the boys visit her parents (mema and papa), apparently the downstairs area where the boys sleep has quite a problem with migrating scorpions. now that's a serious bed bug!
