Well, it's official. For those of you that have been expecting this day, it has finally come. I can now say with certainty that Lauren is irrationally as afraid of bugs as her mother....she just happened upon one of these poor creatures and let out a scream so terrifying, I knew some stranger must be in our house trying to kidnap her. As I lept from my seat and knocked over several things in my path to get to her, she continued to scream and then cry and tried to get words out to explain the vile creature capable of pure torture.
It was just a bug. Poor kid, too many times having heard Mommy scream at the site of a spider (I swear it was the size of an apple!!!), I guess. I realize that in my lifetime, I will be imparting some of my traits upon her, just not sure the irrational ones are the best for her to learn first.
So, I will do my best from now on to look at those creatures with more legs than I care to count as a two year old should, with awe and wonder....but from a safe distance!

Jess, your blog is so cute! In fact, I copied you and changed mine a bit--thanks for the wonderful ideas! I can't believe how old Lauren is getting!!! She can't possibly be learning her letters--it seems like yesterday that these girls were babies!!!! It's SO much fun to watch them grow and learn! CUTE stories and pics, Jess! Thanks for sharing, and I look forward to more!
That is so funny! The same exact thing happened here the other day and I had the same thoughts!! Bugs are yuck.
