eavesdropping on my children

7-yr-old: Wow, do you see that Hayden? See that baby spider? It's trapped between your bedroom window and the screen.

4-yr-old: Awwww, hi baby spider. You're so cuuuuuute. It's ok baby spider. He's probably scared because he can't find his family.

7-yr-old: Wow, if you look really close, you can see his face. Hi spider. Isn't that cool?

4-yr-old: Yeah, way cool. Hi baby. Hi little guy. Hi cutey spider. We'll take care of you. Don't worry. Awwww...

7-yr-old: Yeah, we could help free you. Let's lift the screen and help him get out so he's not trapped.

4-yr-old: Yeah, let's do that. We'll get you out, baby spider.

7-yr-old: Oh, but wait a minute. Then the spider might come on in your bedroom. What will we do then?

4-yr-old: Oh, then I will KILL HIM
.

Well, it was nice while it lasted.
