Of Drowning Mice


 
Last night in the middle of supper Paul had something to say.
"Guess what!  There's a dead mouse in Lincoln's water!"
All the kids looked up with interest.
Lindsay immediately exclaimed, "Let's go poke it with a stick!"
In about 4 seconds the table had been vacated by 4 children who ran to retrieve a stick so that they could each poke the waterlogged rodent before fishing it out and feeding it to Lincoln.
 
MORAL OF THE STORY: Anything that is found dead on this property my kids will poke with a stick and feed to their dog--water beetles, cockroaches, moths, mice, etc.  Please don't die here if you don't want the same treatment.

  1. Seems if the kids don't poke it with a stick and feed it to Lincoln that you will spray it with poison.....I think I'll behave!
