I have *helped* slay a cockroach.

Yes. Believe it. Even though I never technically got near it, I think it should count anyway because it was my idea....

See, it all started when I saw the nasty BIG roach crawling across the floor. I held it together pretty well and only screamed quietly. There were 5 girls in the house, and none of us would get near it. Then it hit me! TUPPERWARE! So I ran to the kitchen, got a big tupperware bowl, and Maggie showed her mighty braveness and courage and set the bowl on top of the roach. Then we all ran away and peeked in to make sure it was still there. It was crawling reaaaally fast in circles, but it was still in the bowl. So we sat a book on top for good measure. The contraption looked like this.

See the roach?

Then we moved in in the sun so it would roast to death. We left it there until mom got home, and I gave her the answer to the question she always asks me. "What are you going to do when you move out and there is a bug in your house?!" My answer? Tupperware and sunlight :) Only that wasn't good enough. She said she wasn't picking it up this time and it was going to stay there until one of us picked it up. I said tough luck cause there is NO way I was getting near it. Then Maggie showed even MORE bravery and courage and knocked it into the bowl with a paper towel and flushed it down the toilet. Yay for brave younger sisters.
