Attack of the Lady Bugs!!!

Over the past 2 years I have learned that in Central Georgia there is a time of year when there is an invasion of Lady bugs. I don't know how many homes they invade but ours is definitely on the top 10 list. They literally cover our front porch and somehow get into our front living room. Last year wasn't that big of a deal having them get in. However this year is a different story. Ellie does NOT like bugs in the least and she makes certain that we know this... Today a Lady bug landed on her and from the sound of her screams I thought she had been attacked by something awful... I look over and her eyes are big as bowling balls and she is screaming "BUG!" "BUG!". I flicked it off of her leg and she ran to another room crying!
Later on she figured she'd get her revenge on this evil bug that had wronged her. She saw one on the floor ran and got one of my shoes and came back whacking at it. When she discovered it was no longer moving she looked at me, smiled, and said "No bug".
Hopefully the cold weather will come back soon and we can be free of these little red bugs.
