nasty little scratch

There's a little scratch on Mia's face - probably from her tree climbing (which is improving) which was doing fine..almost healed. But of course, she had to fiddle with it and scratch it off...so it bled. Not much, but still, it looks worse. "Oh no!" I said, "you've scratched your face!".

"Quick mommy - put some gasoline on it!"

It took me a few seconds...vaseline. I laughed and laughed and went to find some gasoline. She laughed too and corrected herself without me telling her.
