Ryley is giving a presentation on squirrels today. As he went over his notes this morning, he realized he didn’t include the natural predators of squirrels. He quickly added the usual suspects: fox, coyote, hawks. Our dog.
Sam was listening, then thoughtfully piped up, “I know what predators worms have!”
He began to list them.
“Cats, dogs, birds, foxes, wolves, bears, squirrels, rabbits and bunnies, skunks, raccoons, badgers, moles, snakes, lizards, hawks, eagles, ground hogs, sheep, ducks, geese, goats, pigs, cows, donkeys, horses…pandas, elephants, giraffes, lions, zebras, tigers, monkeys and gorillas, camels, spiders, bees, wasps, some other birds, people, fish, and maybe some sharks.”
You would think they’d look more nervous.
Your kids… I can’t wait to lunch with you all again someday!

love it! It’s a good thing they don’t realize!
