A Boo!

Bugs, ants, flies, bees, spiders.....in Ryan's world they are all called "boos". He has recently discovered these creepy crawly creatures and he is both interested and disgusted by them. Outside he stops and intently watches the ants on the ground. Other times, if he sees a spider, he acts frightened and runs to me for safety.

Ryan even "sees" bugs in other places, like the bathtub. He saw a speck of dirt the other day while in the tub and immediately shouted "Boo!". No Ryan, it's just dirt.

He is even having dreams about them. The other night he woke up yelling "No!".

Ryan sounded very frightened, so I asked him what was wrong.

He cried "A Boo!".

I asked him "Ryan, did you see a bug?"

Ryan's response was "Uh Huh".

I told him it was okay, the bug was all gone.

He just sighed and went back to sleep.
