A Fish Tale

Would you believe we found a fish in our backyard? There we were pulling weeds at about 7 pm and my husband hears our son say “fish”. Low and behold there was a three inch fish lying in the grass. Needless to say we do not have a pond in our yard, but there is a small lake across the street. Could it be the fish walked across the street and climbed over our fence to die in our grass? Was it his life’s dream to go where the grass is greener? Probably not since fish don’t climb fences. We guess a bird flying over had it in its mouth and dropped it. Really, how else could it have got there? Either way it was a treat for the three year old to find it, hold it and toss it in the garbage. Now that I think about it ….maybe we should have buried it for the sake of recycling.
