Garden Spiders
A father watched his young daughter playing in the garden. He smiled as
he reflected on how sweet and pure his little girl was. He thought about
her seeing the wonders of nature through such innocent eyes.
Suddenly she just stopped and stared at the ground. He went over to her
to see what work of God had captured her attention. He noticed she was
looking at two spiders mating.
"Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?" she asked.
"They're mating" her father replied.
"What do you call the spider on top?" she asked.
"That's a Daddy Longlegs," her father answered.
"So, the other one is a Mommy Longlegs?" the little girl asked.
As his heart soared with the joy of such a cute and innocent question,
he replied "No dear. Both of them are Daddy Longlegs."
The little girl, looking a little puzzled, thought for a moment, then
took her foot and stomped them flat and said, "Well, we're not having
any of that Brokeback-Mountain shit in our garden."
