Then, when they were out on the playground, they had a little visitor.
And, Grace was brave enough to hold it!

the school director e-mailed them to me. )

This is a big step from saying, "Ewww!" every time she sees a spider, which is often at our house. Since we live on a lake, there are tons of spiders and spider webs because they have an abundant food source right here.
Of course I want her to be cautious about handling any insects, but I am glad she is not "frightened" like Little Miss Muffet!

Wow!! that is amazing! I am sad to say I accidently passed my fear on to Mayna so I doubt she would do this~! Grace is so brave!! Mayna did have an up close and personal exp with a spider though recentlyu....she has a huge bite on her back. Unless it is mosquito. Who knows.
Ba was amazed how BIG that spider was! Funny to think it was right in the playground. He thought a zookeeper came with them for show and tell at school.
Grace didn't make a cheesy smile for the photo. I guess it was her big girl school pose.
Maya would have run a mile by the time Grace scooped up that spider! She is NOT fond of bugs, at the moment. Grace is a budding scientist!
So brave! We just had a spider encounter on the couch. I heard a loud scream and sure enough...there was a spider crawling towards Dawson. It looked just like the one Grace is holding! I love her fearless way of exploring life!
Grace you are so very brave. Aunt Phyl would NEVER hold a spider, NEVER... I am so glad that you had a friendly spider, because sometimes they do bite.
