Phobias

So I'm at the Y pool with the kids today (my back still hurts so I just watched them), and Erin comes over to the side and tells me, ‘Dad, I’m not so scared of elevators anymore! I rode in them twice today!’
Whew, what a relief! It only took her to age nine!
(Actually, she has had this fear for only a year or so--I think she has watched too many TV shows with ‘stuck in the elevator’plots!)
