If you saw my stories yesterday, you saw what a swollen mess my eyes were. It seriously was so swollen I had to focus to just keep my eye 👁 open it was so swollen! ⠀⠀
.
But in less than 24 hours I no longer am swollen and here’s a few of the combo things that seemed to help! ⠀⠀
.
Washing hands and tons of Thieves hand sanitizer, because no one wants a baby having this too!!!
⠀⠀
.
Cucumbers 🥒 on eyes. I did chamomile tea bags on them too! Cool moist wash cloth. I put purification in the cloth. You never want to put oils directly into your eyes! ⠀⠀
.
Thieves rolled on feet and spine. ⠀⠀
When I woke up it’d definitely gone down, and I repeated the Thieves and did frankincense and lavender! All gone by this afternoon! ⠀⠀
.
The thing is there’s usually not 1 magic thing, but a bunch of things working together that make the difference! But if you have any bags under your eyes, go ahead and roll all the frank and lavender and smell great and look fabulous! .

I may not be the the best room mom. The mom who has homemade snacks ready at all times. I may say we’re having chicken nuggets for the 4th night in a row, because sometimes I just value the silence and a kid who actually eats something. ⠀⠀
.
But when we’re playing at a park or pool with new kids I can’t help but be proud of this kid. She is the best big sister who introduces her baby sister to any kid and then quickly says, we have a brother and another baby sister, but they died.
⠀⠀
.
I’m sure not many of the kids understand what that means. But they accept the acknowledgement and then they all move onto play. ⠀⠀
.
I hope to one day be as good as she is at grief. She’s not always looking for sympathy, she’s looking for acknowledgment, there should be more kids here. They both acknowledge it and say well, let’s go slide instead. ⠀⠀
.
One day this kid will be blowing us all away with how she can talk to others! ⠀⠀
