ouch!

Last week I got a bee sting on my eye.
I was walking back from the clothes rack and suddenly this bee came whizzing by and got caught inside my glasses.
Can you imagine? A bee inside my glasses!
I screamed and threw my glasses on the ground. By then the bee had stung my eye.
So I did what any child would do.
I screamed and ran to my mother and said a bee stung inside my eye.
She said a bee couldn't sting inside my eye( something to do with reflex reaction) and asked me to stop screaming, so she could look at my eye.
My mother said that a bee could sting on your eyelid not inside your eye.
I stopped screaming but started crying on the top of my voice.

Then my mom started crying! but not for me, for the bee.
She kept saying oh the poor bee! my daughter must have frightened the living day light out of the poor innocent bee that was only looking for some nectar.
Then she called me a Bee killer!
Then she said my daughter is the reason why the bees are becoming extinct, and yet I had only killed two bees in my life. The other one I stepped on with both my feet on the first day of school.
How did I step on the bee with both my feet? At first I stepped on the bee with my left leg and I jumped, then the bee moved and I stepped on it with my right leg.
I was so angry with my mother and told mama that she is the meanest mom on planet earth.
Finally after many attempts my mother got me to shut up.After she shut me up she applied after bite and boy did that sting. Then she gave me Benadryl tablet to prevent an allergic reaction.
Then she told me to lie down.I lied down for a couple of minutes.When I woke up my mom said to go look in the mirror I saw this big funny looking swollen bump on my eye.
She eventually said I am sorry. She said that I was over reacting and she wanted me to calm down by distracting me by calling me a bee killer.

Ouch that bee sting really hurt!
