Those that were seated near me in church last week know that something scared me. They saw me gasp and throw my bag to the ground. It took a lot to keep the scream IN. A praying mantis popped out of my church bag in the middle of sacrament meeting. Now, if it had been a spider I would have screamed. I'm known for blood curdling screams that put me into a fetal position when surprised by an arachnid. This was a young praying mantis. Only about 2 1/2 inches long. It made me shutter to think he could have been hiding in there through all of church (sacrament meeting is last.) It still makes me shutter! Yeeewww!

Praying Mantis (or is it manti if it is singular, I don;t know) don't usually scare me but I would have let out a scream if one had crawled out of my church bag. You were very brave.
Oh Wow! That would have scared me too! I'm with you about spiders! The other day,Justin brought his shoes out to me by the car, so I could untie them, and there was a HUGE spider on it, about the same color as the shoes. I'm so glad it didn't get Justin. I screamed, and yelled for Tom! Did Alan take your bag and take care of it? Oh My!
that would freak me out!
