We have a tenant here in our midst who has managed to enchant me. If you are here for any amount of time you will, no doubt, meet him.
He knows the goings on of the park and can tell me who is breaking my rules. All of 5 years old, he has become the heart beat of the park. I recognize the same spirit of independence in him that still lives in my youngest child. I try not to put names in here. Well, except for my own family, but if you have ever been here ...... you know his name!
Yesterday he gave me the details and locations of the wasp "hives" on the pavilion. His mother and I looked at him and said "hives?" He just shrugged and said "like bee hives". Not long ago he informed his dad that I had witnessed him running my stop sign and told him he was going to get them kicked out!
Gotta love that kid! He knows it, too. He came in the store yesterday, face bright red from the heat and told me that he had been "all over the park" and that it was hot out there. Then he wondered if I could give him a Dr. Pepper. Of course I did, he thanked and went on his way.
HeWho battles winged intruders took care of those "hives" last night.

You have a great helper there. Glad you are reimbursing him for his services.
It's always good to have an undercover informant. I think a Dr. Pepper was pretty cheap for his services.
Oh he sounds like a gem
That little rat sounds like he's worth a Dr. Pepper. LOL
