Fear: What are you afraid of?

Fear. Well, that isn't very fun, is it? I am definitely not one of those girls that like scary movies. Death and gore really freak me out and scare the hell out of me. Why would I enjoy watching it? Now, if you like scary movies, good for you! In fact, my little sister and step-daughter are huge scary movie fans. I just do not care for them.

So, the scariest thing I have watched recently involve angel statues. And blinking. If i have confused you, I am sorry, and I will not bore you with an explanation. If you follow me......DON'T BLINK! 

*shudder*

Okay, so I guess if I had to choose a fear, it would be spiders. Oh, how I hate spiders. I like lizards, snakes, and mice. But keep those creepy, 8-legged things away! I am that girl, who upon finding a spider (mostly small and harmless), will yell for her husband to come kill it. Every time. And he hates it.

I mean, I have lived on a ship for 6 months out to sea. I gave birth. I have a 4 year old and a 13 year old. Both girls. You would think I could kill a little ol' spider. Ugh! It gives me the heebie-jeebies! And of course, when I HAVE to kill one (like when my hubby isn't home), it takes me awhile. And it isn't very pretty. Actually, you would probably be a little embarrassed for me. But you should see what a big shot I am when I kill that sucker. I mean, I am one tough cookie. Don't mess with mama, the spider slayer!

And just because I DID NOT want to go searching for a spider to get a picture of for this challenge, I asked my 4 year old to draw me a picture of the scariest spider she could.

Well, not very scary, is it? Her exact words: "Well, I wanted it to be a cutie spider!"

She is so 4, and so a little girl! Who else would make a spider "cute"? Haha love it! This is a baby spider in her web. The flowers are potted, sitting on a windowsill.  The spider has a pacifier in her mouth and a little curl with a bow. So adorable! Makes me rethink my fear of spiders...........

Nope. They are still creepy.
