I am NOT afraid!

My mother would be very proud of me. I actually saw a spider in the shower with me and didn’t lose it screaming like a banshee. I don’t like to share my shower with anyone, or anything. And I hate spiders. A lot! So getting into the shower on Sunday and seeing a very big “daddy-long-legs” was not my idea of a fun time. But instead of screaming, killing it, and washing it down the drain I calmly called Jakob to come and see it. He thought it was very cool. Then he called Daddy and I asked him to bring me the very cool new bug catcher he got for his birthday. Jakob was very happy when I caught the spider in the catcher and sealed it up. He was able to walk around and check out the spider and I was once again alone in my morning shower. Whew! This catcher is really cool, the lid on it has a magnifying glass so it enlarges the “bug” inside – which for me is not so cool. But Jakob loved it. We kept the spider for a day. Jakob carried it around for awhile. No, we didn’t name it. Jakob carried on a few conversations with it, but no names. He was very willing to let it go the next day outside in nature where spiders belong. The spider was released out in our backyard and has not returned for a shower. Thank goodness!
