Deersitting

Well, today right before Lily's nap we looked out the kitchen window and what did we see? As Lily called it "A baby roo" (as in kangaroo), close but I tried to explain that it was a baby deer. After Lily went to bed I went outside and it was coming to the front of the house probably trying to run away but the neighborhood kids playing outside scared it, so after a few attempts it settled in the space between our side fence and garden shed. I called animal control because I didn't think it was safe for the deer or neighbor kids to have a deer running about, and they said oh sometimes moms just do that and leave the baby while they go get food for like a day but don't worry they'll come back to get it. What? Anyway after Chad telling me I absolutley couldn't take it some carrots, I guess I will just wait and see and hope that the mama deer didn't get run over or we may have a permanent resident. But hey I don't mind babysitting, when it involves absolutely nothing on my part, so take your time mama deer because the look on Lily's face as she was talking to it was so priceless.
