"And the children on the bus go 'scratch, scratch, scratch'"

.. sang S this morning. And with good reason: horrid little critters have invaded.

Nits! Argh!

So I've kept her home and treated her and the rest of us with some lovely pesticide, combed hair endlessly and am going to change all the bedding and wash some teddies. And boil hairbrushes.

Little horrible parasites. The nits, not the children. ;)
