This and That

Not too awfully long ago, my brother flew our Mother down for Easter. It was a wonderful family gathering. Good company, great food, nice sunny day, all the family in attendance. Uncle Marshall was showing off his new home, giving us all the grand tour. Such a neat backyard! My boys were prowling around in the shrubbery when the oldest let out a holler. Throwing his arms out, he shouts,

 "Everybody Stop!! I see a lizard!"

He sneaks up ever so softly, giving us a play by play.

“I can see it good... it's not moving... it's a Big Brown Lizard!"

 He is very excited now, and the whole world stands still as he leans forward, preparing for the capture. He crouches, SPRINGS and makes a grab for the lizard!! Then FALLS to the ground in a heap! Gasping for air,

"It squished!! I think it's...Oh My Gosh!!! IT'S DOG POOP!"

 All of the adults are now snickering and snorting, Grandma even wets her pants. Some things you can never live down :-)
