Ryder and "fearlessness"

So, the other night Kia read a book to Zoe and Ryder. In the book there is a monster who is looking for its "hairy toe". The picture of the monster develops and the full picture is shown on the last page. So, Kia reads the entire book and they both laugh and love the book. Shortly thereafter, Ryder starts to be scared of being left alone foe any amount of time. Its been going on for some time now. We are hoping it's a phase and he'll quickly outgrow it. He literally wakes up in the middle of the night and runs to our room screaming/crying in a panic. It's sad because the fear is obviously very real to him... But... Would be cool if he outgrew this soon.

 

On another topic, Tonight after dinner Zoe asked if she could have some W-A-T-E-R. She spells things sometimes to not trigger Ryder. So, hearing this, Ryder says: "can I have some W-X-Y-Z? That spells ice cream"
