Still Scared

Following up on Monday's post:

Fiona's fascinated by fear. She doesn't seem paralyzed or anything, but she does keep bringing up the airplane. When we hear a car pass by outside she calls it an airplane, often following up to say "airplane scare".

When Andrea was watching Pooh's Heffalump Movie with her yesterday (to call the Heffalump movie Fiona's favorite DVD would be an understatement; I think our TV is going to start playing it automatically soon), Fiona spent the early part of the film watching the residents of the Hundred Acre Wood respond to the possibility of a Heffalump in their midst saying "Pooh scared! Piglet scared!" She wasn't worried for them (she's seen the movie dozens of times by now) so much as pleased to be able to name the emotion.

So far it seems like something she wants to talk about, which we do ("it's okay to be scared and you did very well on the plane"). We're also glad that we don't have any more flights scheduled in the next few months.
