GigglyGirl and BusyBoy were in the backyard playing, when Mr. Right heard GigglyGirl screaming her head off.  Based on her screams, he thought she may have broken a leg or severed an artery.  Luckily, when he went to check on her all limbs were in place and there was no blood.  Ah, the drama of a girl! 

When she finally calmed down, she told Mr. Right what the problem was.  “I saw a lizard in the fire pit and I want it for a pet.  BusyBoy won’t catch it for me and I want him to.”  (BusyBoy is her twin brother.)

Mr. Right commented, “Maybe BusyBoy is afraid to catch the lizard.”

To which GigglyGirl quickly replied, “Well, I know you aren’t afraid to catch a lizard, are you Daddy?”

Mr. Right must have come down in her eyes a notch or two that day because she learned Daddy did not want to catch a lizard for her either.  She will have to get the nerve up to catch her own lizard if she wants one for a pet.
