This is the month of spiders. There is a lot of them around this year, big ones too.
Very big ones…
I don’t mind them myself but my kids don’t seem too fond, (nor is Myles come to think of it).

Hi Mel, I'm ok with that.
Dear Doodlemum, this is meaningful and profound. Can I share your post on my website? Will link back
It's only when we experience unhappiness that we truly recognise happiness. I hope everything's ok x
I will!
Thank you so much Patti.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Sounds very hot in Texas!
Sounds divine. In Texas, we ice cubes are boiling. I love your blog.
Beautifully-worded. A drawer has a writer in them too. :)

I heard it so many times when my son was younger I know it all by heart! To be honest, he still doesn’t like spiders now but it helped diffuse some of the fear at the time!

I don’t mind spiders, I can get them out in a duster, but I really didn’t want my kids to be frightened of them, so I used to read them charlottes web, sang itsy bitsy spider ect. To no avail they all used to scream the house down! Still bad now. How is that? It must be inbred!

I have never been afraid of spiders. They catch and eat annoying pests, so I like them. I rescue them. My daughter used to be scared of spiders. Now she rescues them too!

I don’t like them in the bath or anywhere else. They’re like snakes–good or bad, I don’t like them.
