I just have to share the little conversation I had with Tanner a few minutes ago; it gave me quite a chuckle.
A little explanation as to why we were having the conversation though... As we were leaving to take Savannah and Ethan to school I noticed that the access door for the garage was open about 8 inches, letting in the crisp cold air into the garage. Frustrated I asked, "Who left the door open?" Savannah is quick to blame Ethan, saying that she told him he needed to lift up on the handle to be able to close it tight. (It IS quite hard to do.) So, I close it tight and off to school we go.
When we come back and I'm going up the stairs to the landing, I notice the bag of kitchen trash that was set there 2 days ago is missing a cornbread muffin wrapper. There is a nice small hole in the bag where it was fished out and crumbs trailing from the bag to the wrapper. It obviously has to be the work of some kind of animal.
As I was doing all of my thinking out loud, I made my way into the house to set my keys down. I then said, "It could have been a cat, or maybe a rat, (Tanner starts to get a smile on his face-I thought maybe because I rhymed) or a mouse." I shivered on the inside at the thought. Tanner quickly announced what he thought could have done it: "Or maybe a donkey!" Apparently he didn't think any of my suggestions would be able to open a door.
