It’s early on a sunny summer day. I just got out of the shower, grab a cup of tea, and step out onto the patio. Taking a deep breath of fresh morning air, I relax in a chair, where I can feel the warmth of the first rays of sun peaking through the trees. The air is crisp, the birds are singing to each other. I glance across the garden, thinking the dew on the leaves will be gone soon in the heat of the day. When suddenly galloping through the field I see our giant prize rooster with our son on it’s back, riding it like a racehorse! I jump to my feet, upsetting my tea and shout, “Russell, don’t ride the rooster!!!” They both stop and look at me as if they do this every morning. And all he can say with total sincerity is, “Why not!”
