Jonah likes to help in the garden, so every time a dig up a new creepy-crawly, I put it in Jonah's shovel or bucket for him to inspect. It seems the bug net and critter house were unnecessary. He's not bothered at all, and often I find him holding a worm or letting a beetle crawl over his hand. (Worms, by the way, are hilarious.) Then he lets them go and waves, "bye-bye!"
Take this inside, and Jonah finds Mommy and Daddy's war on ants. So he follows suit, smushing an ant with his finger and saying, "bye-bye!" What a terrible thing to see my precious toddler doing!
