My best friend went outside to look at the world the other morning, and found this little feller laying in the yard. Must've been blown outta the nest by the storm the night before. He took care of it for a few days, then remembered how much it entailed raising a babby squirrel. So he took it 'to show it to' his 9-10 year old god daughter. She fell in love instantly, and wasn't about to give it up.
Mission accomplished. The girl's dad didn't mind much, but, her mama sure was giving him a mean look when he left...without the babby squirrel.
