SNAKE KILLER

Hello Friends and Family

Don't you wish you had a 'snake killer' in your home? you do? thats great~ I AM NOT THE SNAKE KILLER IN MINE. I repeat... me and snakes stay well away from each other.

We were playing out in the yard and I saw Micah hacking something in the yard. When you are swinging the club like he was, only one varmit is getting killed. SNAKE. I ran over to him after Josh is running to me to tell me about the snake. Micah proudly picks it up, "get your camera mom', he says. Well, speaking of camera's-- I just happened to have it in my pocket... REALLY!! Josh was doing something cute on the horsey and I was snapping pictures... will include that one too! the hat, the boots!!

I was thinking after we flung the 'SPECKLED KING-SNAKE' over the road, what will I do when Micah leaves the house? Who will be my SNAKE KILLER? Then I realized I will have to depend on Josh to do the dirty jobs. The training part takes a bit, but well worth it. There is that 'time period' when they are not old enough to just assume the position, I have to be there to encourage, aim the gun, get the shovel or yell my head off.

Okay!

I hate snakes, I hate snakes. We don't see them often, but when I do, my skin crawls. Micah thought enough to look it up. A teaching moment in the making..............
