A Natural Love for Wildlife

This morning, we were cleaning out the shed at the edge of our yard. Amy was in it with Daniel, and suddenly I heard a piercing shriek. I understood at once that this could only be Amy observing a rodent.

When I looked inside, I saw a hideous, gigantic black rat scurrying up the inside wall of the shed. Luckily, Amy thought it was a mouse. So did Daniel, who was smiling, and rather happy about the whole thing:

Daniel: This mouse I liked.

Me: You liked it, huh?

Daniel: Yeah - I like mouses.
