Wake Up Call

Andrew: "Mom...you forgot to kiss me goodnight."

The clock: 4 a.m.

Dead Rabbit

We bought 3 rabbits this past weekend. On the first night our neighbor's dog snatched one. In the morning I heard Luke get into the hall closet to take down his air-soft gun. After swiftly loading it in the kitchen I watched him patrol our property with tears in his eyes.

Me: "Luke, what are you doing?"
Luke: "I am going to go kill Freckles."

Freckles is our neighbor's dog and, apparently, a ruthless killer who needed to be taken down.
