He's not complaining about it so I doubt it's something to run to the ER for. Will take him to the Pediatrician if it does not clear up by Monday.
Anyone ever see anything like this on thier kids? Blurry pick, hard to keep a 3 ear old from moving.

Keep an eye on it, dusting off my pathophysiology learnin', that could be "oral thrush", a fungal infection in the early stages, which kids can get.
