How Jason Became Known As "Mr. McGregor"




Tonight Ben and Janae were being a little too crazy with Ben's hamster, so Jason put the hamster back in its cage and told the kids he was going to put Fluffy "up high."

Janae went to her room and started crying as only a hysterical 5-year-old girl can. 

When Ben went in to talk to Janae, she told him, "I am not going to eat one bite of that pie!"

Pie?

It turns out that Janae thought Jason said he was going to put Fluffy "in a pie."



I don't think I would have eaten a bite of it either!

But the rest of the night I couldn't help calling my husband "Mr. McGregor"--even though technically it was Mrs. McGregor who put Peter Rabbit's father into a pie :)

Fluffy watched the whole thing from "up high" on the TV stand.  I wonder what he thought. . . .

My goodness I would be crying too if I thought my dad was going to make a pie out of my pet. Poor Ben and Janae :0(

Poor Fluffy!! I was just thinking the day before I read this that my kids have never read "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" I guess a trip to the book store is in order...before I let them read your post:)
