Just a little funny for today.
Some of you may know, and those of you that don't- well my BIGGEST fear, in fact it's more an enormous PHOBIA, is any living creature with wings.
And I mean ANYTHING-birds, ducks, chickens, even moths and butterflies.
And by phobia I literally mean curled up in a ball crying, throw my kids in front of me to protect me, screaming, shouting, shaking scared of them.
Yep, absolutely ridiculous I know. Don't judge me-I'm sure your phobia seems stupid to me.
Anyway on to my funny story. Today I took Isla out the front for a play in the sunshine. Not too long afterwards I picked her up to bring her back inside in the warmth. As I turned her around to snuggle her close to me I saw she had a freaking moth on her shirt.
Those that know me would expect me to scream and throw my baby-and in all honesty that's what I wanted to do. But, I was very brave I very carefully put her on the ground. And then because the stupid moth wouldn't fly away by itself I proceeded to throw toys at her until finally I threw a domino that hit it and the stupid winged beast flew away. Before I had a chance to get my thong to squash the beast Zac the dog came through and ate it.
No screaming, no shaking and no throwing the baby.
Proudest day of my life. . .
