Conversations we might have if we sat down over a cuppa.
From time to time I have some burning desire to share something that doesn't fit in with our photography blog or our kids' blog. That's where this blog fits in. If you've had the misfortune of finding it, don't judge me by it without checking out the others. =)

Only Two Fears
I read something recently about fear that was fascinating and seemed to ring true. We are all born with two fears: the fear of loud noises and the fear of being dropped. All of our other fears are learned, and as such, can be un-learned.
Interesting! When Erin & Michelle were newborns, our Dr. office was involved in a study with Johns Hopkins on "primitive reflexes"and how they affect (or don't affect)your behavior/learning ability, etc. Loud noises & fear of falling (off the Dr. exam table)was tested. (Erin & Chelle passed!) They screamed for both tests!
