So there she was....
We have had lots of ants outside our house. They never really bothered us before and the kids and I just like to watch them. Well one day Eliza got attacked by them. I was surprised that they actually bit her. There she was crying begging for help. The whole event left her terribly shaken and traumatized at the site of an ant. In fact, if she was walking and saw an ant she would be frozen in her place, unable to get around it! That was until she learned she could CRUSH them!
What does this look like. Maybe you would say it looks like a mild mannered letter used for learning the alphabet and letter sounds. But you would be wrong!
In the hands of a crazed and determined woman it is a deadly ant CRUSHING tool!
The few brave ants that have ventured into the house have all met the same fate under the hands and "letters" of this exterminator! It is not uncommon to hear the letters hitting the ground while she is yelling at the soon to be dispatched ants!
Ants be afraid, be very afraid!!!
Now she isn't afraid of them at all and isn't frozen in fear. She only looks for her letters and takes care of them!
Oh and to all those BYU fans out there I am sure you will enjoy the letter she prefers! Go Utes!!!

that is too funny! I hope you're feeling well!
Eliza Jane - I am so proud of you taking care of those nasty ants. I hope you are feeling better from the bites. You look so peaceful sleeping on the floor. You sleep just like your daddy did when he was your age.
Love, Nana
