Little Lady used to freak out about bugs. Literally freak out. Dragonflies were the worst. She would see or hear them and come unglued. It really made playing outside in the summer a bit rough. She'd become hysterical until we went inside.
Then one day, she discovered that not all bugs are terrifying. She found a Potato Bug on the patio and was intrigued watching it so I convinced her to hold it. She was very nervous but agreed. She discovered that this kind of bug was great fun to hold and play with!
She still doesn't like a lot of bugs but she loves lady bugs and potato bugs. I'm just glad she now shows interest in them instead of pure fear! She lets them crawl all over her arms and gets so sad if she can't find one when we are outside playing.
