Well, Little miss Evangeline is totally into girlie things. She's all about clothes; a total shoe connoisseur. She loves to have her hair brushed, complete with barrettes. She loves baby dolls. She can make anything a purse. Just...girl stuff.
Well today, little Miss Evie did something that made even me, an anti-girlie girl, shudder.
I was making dinner & decided to take the kids out front to play with sidewalk chalk & ride the tricycles. So, Emmit was riding down the driveway & came running back up, telling me he saw a worm. I walked out there & I saw this thing (that had been run over) laying in the driveway. At first, I thought maybe it was a worm, but I got something & flipped it over & it was a snake. So, I was like, "Okay...it's a snake. Let's leave it for Daddy to move when he gets home." I HATE snakes.
So, we started playing up at the top of the drive by the garage. Well, Evie walked down to get the trike that Emmit had abandoned & I said, "Evie, don't step on the snake" without raising an alarm. I mean, it's little & dead, and I didn't want to scare her.
Well, what does Miss Thang do?
Reach down & PICK THE SNAKE UP! OH MY GOD!
I almost DIED!
When I yelled, "Evie, put that down!", she threw it as me!
Here's a pic of said slithery creature (sorry, he's as straight as he's getting...we're not touching him)...
