Things my children are scared of

Brother:
The electric train set.
The end of the They Might Be Giants' song, Violin.
Crinkly paper bags.
Kids screaming, happy or otherwise.
The vacuum.

Sister:
The stools shaped like teeth at The Science Factory: They don't have eyes, Mama! That's why they're scary! Yes, I tried explaining that teeth aren't supposed to have eyes, to no avail.
The hallway.
The washing machine- Still!
The vacuum.

And so on and so forth. They are a couple of wackadoos, god love 'em!

I'm still afraid of the vacuum... Saves a lot of housework. I am also afraid of grocery stores.
