I just realised that it was EXACTLY the same night a year ago that Emma had that
awful mosquito bite on her eye in Bali! We had taken photos of her swollen eye the next morning, just like we did on Sunday. I checked the date the pictures were taken and lo and behold, it was 10 September as well. How creepy!

Anyway, thank you for all your well wishes and advice on keeping mosquitoes away as well as how to reduce the swelling and discomfort. I am glad to report that the swell in her eye has since gone down and so have the other bites on her legs. And here's a video clip to warn the all those evil mosquitoes out there that attacking my daughter does NOT dampen her spirits, even if she looks terribly uncomfortable and miserable.
