Put the Kitty Back in the Zoo

After church today we went to the community garden to pick all of our ripe tomatoes. While we were there we noticed for the first time about six apple trees by the garden, so Jason picked one for Jaxon thinking they would still be sour, but I tasted the apple and it was delicious. So, tonight after dinner, we took a walk to the apple trees to get a couple more apples.

There is a nice grassy area by the garden, so we sat for a while and ate our apples. Well, Jaxon decided to climb the hill by where we were which has tall grass and flowers covering the hill. Well, we got about 3/4 of the way up the hill when he froze in his tracks and started shouting, "An animal! An animal!" Jason jumped up as fast as he could because he was thinking it was something bad like a snake or something. Jaxon came down the hill and explained to us that it was a kitty cat.

By this point I was laughing so hard that I almost peed my pants (pregnancy bladder!). So, Jason decided to go up the hill to see what it really was that was up there and sure enough, it was a cat. After Jason came back down the hill Jaxon looked at us and said, "You need to call someone to come take the cat back to the zoo!"

I'm not sure if this story will be as funny to all of you as it is to me, but maybe you just had to be there because it was hilarious!

That's very funny! The things kids say are always so fun to read. Their perspective is so different from ours. So which community garden has the apple trees. I wanna try one!
