I would like to share the "turtle incident" with everyone. It all started when Karson purchased a turtle puppet for Sofia and Jude. When they all visited us I reminded Karson to bring out the turtle. Well he brought it out. Af first Sofia kind of backed away from it slowly. Then Karson used the puppet and had the turtles head come out very slowly. At this point Sofia freaked out. She ran and climbed on the couch and climbed on Tobi's head. She was shaking and crying. Karson put the turtle away and Sofia ran to the other room. She would not return to the living room because she thought the turtle was still there. So Karson made it a point to bring the turtle in the spare room and show Sofia he put the box away in the closet. She was then ok and returned to the living room.
Well she is still afraid of this turtle and when you mention it she gets a look on her face and she says "no". It is very strange how kids can be afraid of one thing and yet not be afraid of another thing. I guess all kids go through this. I am sure when she gets older we can bring out the turtle with no problem! :)

Haha! This is the only way we can get her to behave by saying we are getting the turtle out. It's our last resort but she then behaves. It's sad but hey, it works every time. Thx Karson. ;)
