The "Blue Widow Spider"

The other day the boys were yelling at me from their room to come get a big spider that was on their bunk beds.  I was busy doing something so I kept saying, "just a minute" and "I'm sure it is fine" and "Caden, go get it with your bug catcher."  Finally, Cooper says "but it has an hour glass on its back, I'm scared it might be a blue widow!!"  Well, that got me in there and this is what I found:



Two little boys under their covers with a paper spider being reeled up and down on a tinker toy wheel.


So proud that they had fooled their mama....finally!  I felt bad for putting them off so long!!  They kept asking "were you scared?" "Did it make you jump?!?"
