Billy the Exterminator

So I hate to admit this but Leo is obsessed with the A&E show "Billy the Exterminator."  He watches it every Tuesday evening.  He will sit there and not move a muscle, which is a big deal for my hyperactive 5 year old.  Not only is he fascinated with all the bugs and rodents and strange animals in people's homes and yards, he wants me to be fascinated too.  I'll admit, I was the one who turned the show on for him one afternoon.  He loves bugs and all things gross so I thought he might like this show.  Little did I know that I was creating a monster.  The show is strange, to say the least, but definately entertaining.  It is hard for me to get excited about roaches and spiders, though.  Last night, Leo was watching his show while I was washing the dishes .  He came running into the kitchen talking 90 miles an hour about some furry animal in a person's yard.  I just smile and nod, like a good mama.  Then, of course, he ends his story with "come see mama."  I can tolerate some things but thinking about what creepy, crawly bugs/rodents could be lurking in my house is hard to stomach.  Thankfully, I just repeat in my head, this could never happen in my house or yard and watch Leo get super excited as Billy traps some kind of furry rodent.  Who knows, maybe Leo has found a career path already.
