This a.m., my 6 1/2 y.o. son complained of an itchy foot -- inside his Crocs. We pulled off his shoes and socks, indeed saw a red foot and no doubt a bug bite, put a cold compress on it and forgot about it.
Later in the day, he was resting beside me, barefoot. I looked at his foot again, saw the raised skin and said, "Oh. So do you think it's a mosquito bite?"
"No."
"Do you think it's a rash?"
"No."
"Do you think it's a blister?"
"No."
"No?"
"No. It's a...whatchamacallit? It's a...BOO-BOO!"
