Bees, Spiders & Ticks Oh My!

WAY too many bees, spiders & ticks!!!

Our boy looking at the "safe" bugs. Too cute!

Bees - Landing on the wrapper of my burrito, on Josiah's foot at the grocery store, flying in the car over Josiah's head. Everywhere.

Spiders - Benny caught one in the yard, put it in a jar for fire ants to eat and I ended up killing it with a stick. I couldn't think of letting it get back out to get our child or dog. It was big enough to pull a large boat.

While strapping Josiah in his car seat, a big brown spider was lowering itself above his head.

Little black spiders crawling up the wall of my kitchen and on the car door.

Ticks - After finding one on the inside of Josiah's shirt and on Benny's arm...Benny rushed to the store and brought home powder for the yard and bombs for the house to kill all the bugs.

So I ask, WHY CAN'T ALL THESE BUGS JUST LEAVE US ALONE???!!?!?
"Cute as a bug's ear" Daddy use to say.
I don't know how cute a bug's ear is at this point.
Maybe cute as a puppy's ear or cute as a lamb's ear or as cute as a baby's ear, but a bug's ear?
Hmmm...I just know he's cute!
