Allergy Lesson

I thought I would share this funny little conversation I had with Kelci. She is my little "matter of fact" girl, but the truth of the matter is she gets some of her facts mixed up. She was telling me about a little boy in her class that is allergic to chocolate, so she told me he can only eat chocolate one a day. That's odd I'm thinking to myself, but I just kept listening. She told me one day in the cafeteria they had brownies for dessert and her and a couple of her friends tried to get this little guy to eat the brownie. "Oh" I said to her. Kelci do you know what it means to be allergic to something. "No", she says. It means your body will have a reaction if it doesn't like it. People can get very sick. For example if you are allergic to bees and one stings you, you have to go to the hospital for help. I'm not even sure at this point if Kelci is even listening...but I'm going for it. She surprises me though because she said one day while playing at her friends house there was another little girl there. They were all eating oranges, but not her (she's making sure I know this for some reason), and the little girl was stung by a bee. I asked her if the little girl was allergic and she said no, but we had to put a papertowel on it and a bandaid. I love her perspectives, they are great.
