The Itsy Bitsy Spider

Ha Ha!!!
For Kennedy's class, they were collecting live spiders. They are doing a unit on Charlotte's Web and if they brought in a live spider they could get a 100% on any homework paper. So on Friday morning, Corey found a HUGE spider while he was trying to clean out a web that stretched from the ground and up half the tree. So I got so excited and asked him to catch it so I could take it to Kennedy at school. We took it and Kennedy was so excited that I brought it and I was happy to make her happy.
Well... When she returned home from school I said "Weren't you so excited about the spider?" and she said "Mama, it was poisonous!!!!!!! It was a brown recluse!!!!!" Am I the worst mom in the world??? I am certain to be banned from the school from now on...
Corey wanted to know if she still got a 100%.
