Fabulously written!! Isn't it fun to try to show your kids not to be afraid of something you fear yourself?! LOL!

As for snakes...I wrote a six-part story here about my love affair with one of my beloved pet snakes - and about snakes in general. It - like my snakes - opened the eyes of many who didn't understand what lovely creatures they really are - barring the particularly aggressive breeds (and most snakes are NOT this kind!).

Thanks for sharing your story!
