Noah's learning to play outside alone. His comment today, "I'll keep playing until you call me."

On his t-ball stand, he found a spider web with two giant eggs from a brown widow spider. I kinda freaked out and tried to wash the web off. It was pretty sticky and resilient. Then when I went to pull it down, I saw the spider itself. Again, freaking out and killing ensued.

Look, I'm all live and let live with spiders, but not with my kids' toys.
