Scaredy Cat

Our Hadley is what you might call a scaredy cat.  But not always in the way that you or I might be.  For instance, she loves a good wiggly worm and watching the guts get cut out of a deer (totally yucko to me!).  But is scared to death of the noise a vacuum makes.  Last week while sick, I thought it might be fun for her to watch Sesame Street to relax a little bit... too scary!  In these instances, her tears come very quickly and she needs to be hugged a lot (pretty good deal for us!). I've been told, that I was a bit like that as a child (and Kyle is certain he never was, hehe). So that I can remind her of these cute things someday, and hopefully have a good laugh together, I made a little list...
