Hi All,

Yep... another testimonial!!!  This one for that old favorite Lavender.

My 9 1/2 month old son is walking and now trying to run (this is one freaked
out "momma" at times) AND he ends up falling face first into things when I
can't catch him in time.  He has ended up with a few nasty looking welts on
his face.  

For some reason the last one he had about 1 1/2 months ago -  it didn't dawn 
on me to put Lavender or any oil on the welt.  The day after he hit is face on 
his play garden... the welt was raised and bruising badly.  It took a good 2 
weeks for the thing to disappear totally.

NOW... two days ago... he took the same exact fall... hitting the SAME exact
place on the same exact play garden. It immediately welted up and turned
red.  My "momma" genes kicked in and I ran for the Lavender.  Diluted in a bit
of almond oil I rubbed some onto the welt.

The next day....the welt was gone and there was a very slight bruise that
you could barely see. Amazing difference from the first time.  Now two days
later and another application or two of the Lavender and you can't tell he
hit his face at all.
