Saying Hanley hates bugs is an understatement...she literally screams like she was just set on fire when one gets close to her... Since its been raining for the past too many weeks to count, she is always asking to go jump in muddy puddles (thanks Peppa Pig,oiiinnnkkk!). So we put on our rain boots and headed out the door..
After finding the smallest puddles known to man (I guess we waited too long) she jumped for awhile then spotted the huge dirt pile that is now the corner of our front yard... ...The gas company has been tearing up all the sidewalks and part of our yards down my street to replace all the gas lines so the corner of my yard is now a big dirt pile...
She was on the hunt for worms, which shocked me to the
core, so we started digging. Much to my dismay we found one (that she
later named Cossa) and I thought for sure she would scream once I
picked it up with a stick but sure enough she grabbed it with her
fingers. She was insistent on bringing it to the house to show her daddy
and in the process dropped it and ripped it a few times lol
So
back to the front yard dirt pile to search for a new worm... The second
one we found was bigger and juicier and she named it Foosa. She
proceeded to give it numerous baths in the puddles and made it a nice
home when it was time to go inside.
Just wild to me that she was totally fine with worms. It was cute and fun to be playing with her one on one like that doing exactly what she wanted to do with no pressure or resistance from me.
