Aracnaphobia!!!!

I Hate spiders, and so does my kids. I have to be brave for them, I will kill the little ones with my shoes, and even now I have convinced Aanya my oldest that the ones that can climb are ok, but my others are petrified of them, soooo bad that Lavi who is 5, is afraid to sleep even remotely close to the side of the bed where the wall is... I just tell her that don't worry the only ones you can be afraid of is the black widow, and wolf spider, and of course the tarantulas and the spiders in Tonga,( because they are HUGE). Aanya came out from the garage in tears last night, I had asked what happened, and why do you still have the sack of garbage in your hands? She started to cry again, and said "there is a black widow in the garage." My husband being the tender hearted man that he is, just told her,"go and take the trash out, your stinking up the house... But to no surprise, she just sat there as if she did not hear him. I stepped in, like I NEVER do, and told her just to put it next to the car, and daddy would go kill it... After scriptures, afraid that by the time dad got to killing it, it would be who knows where and I wasn't ok with that.

I went out there, and about had a heart attack, that thing was Huge. I ran the other way as fast as I could. Of course all the kids as I opened the door, shouted "is it dead?" I bravely said,"yes" and sneakily ran to Maka for backup help. As he saw the look on my face I said, We need to call someone, and take care of this fast. He picked up his work bag, and walked out the garage, kicking his foot, and the nasty thing fell to the ground, and then squished it. Now I remember telling my Lavi that you can only be afraid if you ever see a black widow, great Dev, how are you going to get this one to sleep now.!!!



On another note today, Elaisi has figured out how to take off his diaper, and kept doing it all day, at lunch time, I started smelling something OFF, and looked down at Elaiasi and about had another heart attack, there he was naked again, only this time it wasn't funny, he had poop all over him, but thank goodness it was not on or near his mouth, I think I would have thrown up... All my children have had situations similar to this one, so after the 6Th one doing it, I would be used to it,,,WRONG.... p.s. The poop in the photo is of chocolate, what where you thinking?
