Don’t let your boys find out you are scared of bugs, spiders, snakes, or other creepy crawly things.

I have masked my fear behind curiosity. 

When the boys discover something that they think might frighten me, I take a picture and then we go research about that creature. I find this keeps me sane and they never gain the ability to use my kryptonite against me.

This delightful little creature was discovered on my most recent walk with my 11-year-old.
 
Isn’t he NOT cute?
 
My research indicates that this guy is a Stink Bug and is a “watch out” species. Because of our milder winter and warmer weather this invading species may be a big problem. Apparently, they love the same berries that we are enjoying!
 
How about you? What do you pretend to careless about to shield yourself from your boys? (Get it? Shield yourself?)
