I am afraid of my shadow!

Our little Mallory is so aware of the world around her. She notices everything! And with this she also askes many questions. The other night I put her to bed and she started to cry. Like really hard! I ran to her room and she kept saying "I am scared! Monster in my bed!" I assured her that there was no monster in her room. She still continued to cry so I decided to turn off the light and then asked her again. "What are you scared of?" She was sitting up in her bed and she looked over her shoulder and there was her SHADOW! She had this horrible look on her face and was shaking. I decided to move the night light across to the otherside of the room. This helped for that night, however the next day we went to the grocery store and as I got her out of the car and stood her on the ground she started to scream. "My shadow, I am scared!" Well, we had to run into the store so that it would not get us :0) Then for the next two days she ran around the house crying because her shadow is going to get her. It has been a new thing at our house. We have never had any of our children be afraid of their shadow. Oh, how funny and different they all are!!
