Attack of the red wasps!

The other day I was outside cleaning the back windows of my house. :) I will take a picture and post it on here (not because my windows are spotless by any means, but to show you the windows I am talking about, to give you a visual if you will)...

ANYHOW! My hub comes around the corner with oldest daughter A and they start telling me what I am doing wrong, etc. etc. They were just kidding, I think?? Hub walks off and a red wasp lands on top of his head as he reaches the corner of the house. He flips off his ball cap as fast as he can and shakes it away, making faces and moving faster than we have seen him move in a long time...we laugh cause of his reaction and they leave me to finish the windows (Nice family, I know)on a shaky, old crickety, ladder none the less...and I SO hate ladders. But that is an entirely different story.

ANYHOW! I finish the windows, probably not the best job I have ever done, but certainly better than what they were. I walk to the corner of the house and a red wasp lands on my freaking head, probably the same one, that wasp obviously has a head fettish! (yes karma..i know!)

So naturally I flip out, I start wailing my hands around, jumping and twisting around, shaking out my hair, screaming at the top of my lungs .. the EVIL red wasp eventually flies away, and i continue to hop around still feeling as if something is crawling on me.

ANYHOW! (lol, you tired of that word yet?) My dogs come busting around the corner of the house, barking, growling, showing their teeth, circling me, trying to figure out how to protect me from what ever is obviously attacking me. I thought it was so cool! It took the 3 dogs (Max, Bubba and Ace) about 5 minutes for me to convince them I was okay and nothing horrible was happening to me.

So it got me to thinking (and for any of you that don't know me, you may think this is weird) but maybe I do that to my children. I react the instant that I feel something is wrong with them, growling, showing my teeth, sometimes barking (at them)...when all they really needed to know is that I will be there to protect them no matter what.

Maybe I need to be a little slower to react!

Now, how I got that from a wasp landing on my head, I will never know. They say God works in mysterious ways...

So that's what I got on my mind tonight. See ya.

Look for my youtube.com channel - thephfactory coming soon! It's loaded, but empty!
