There are things only Mom can say...

 Usually when the girls get hurt, if the "boo boo" is not bad at all, I take a good look at it and tell them "you don't want to know!" which makes them really curious and stop crying. I then tell them "there are aliens coming out of it!!" and the laugh. It works like a charm and then they play aliens for a while.

 No long after we returned to KAUST Elena got hurt and David gave it a try, took a look at it and told her that there were aliens coming out of it!! and then she started BAWLING!!

I guess I have the magic touch ;-)
