Me: (Put the kids in the car, get my purse, remember to stop at store, need to get gas, take back shirt to Target...)
Jack: Mom, that squirrel is really fussing!
Me: What?
Squirrel: Gip, gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip,gip
Me: Well, he does seem upset and he's looking at the ground. Hmmm (possibility of a snake rolls through my mind). Ummm, Jack,let's just back up a bit. Mommy's going to take a look.
And as I tiptoe over to where the squirrel is, this is what I see.
Can't see it yet? Let me get closer...
Just born. Mommy leaves for a few hours to recover, grab some zs and have a stiff drink. She'll be back, though.
