Bravery!

I now know what those mothers who for their children find the strength to lift a car off their injured babies...FOR my children (and for anyone who knows me well KNOW that this is in the SAME category) I captured this!



We are driving up Laye Hill after swimming for the evening, Jim is in Mesquite with Cole so its just the kids and I.  I see something crawling in the road and slammed on my breaks.  I stood there, at a safe distance, weighing how much my kids, namely Connor, would LOVE to show this off to cousins and the neighbors, but could I really catch it and put in in the SAME car as I am in?!?!  All I had was a flimsy plastic cup, like this not much bigger than a dixie cup-cup.  I am SCREAMING as I am trying to put this cup over this enormous man eating spider.  I put it in my car and am having a massive anxiety attack knowing that any bad turn and that thing is free in my CAR!  EWWWW!!!!
