The Bird

Tanner came in the house, talking about a bird that he saw on the ground. It wasn't doing well and he kind of thought it was going to die. He told me that he tossed a pinecone at it to see if it would fly. Shocked, I said, "Tanner, why would you do such a thing when he was on his last leg???" "Mom," he said completely serious, "he had both legs."
