While I was out walking with Mckayla this morning, we stopped by the neighbor’s front yard to check out the blooming daffodils. Mckyala squatted next to me and told me how pretty the flowers were. She also told me we can only look at the flowers but can not touch them. Then, I pointed out the school of ants on the ground not too far from us. She screamed “ants!” and immediately grabbed my hand to run away from them. Then, we continued our walk and saw a big dog walking down the street with his owner. She pointed at the dog and started pulling me towards him so we can go say hi. I was a bit confused, she’s not afraid of the big dog but was afraid of the little ants on the ground? I asked Mckayla, why she was scared of the ants. Her response, “Ants are dirty”.
