Dragging the bunny

Zecarias just dragged in my face painting basket
He wanted another face paint tonight but I said no
His little struggle & the grunts as he worked were amazing
He would not accept any help: had to do it himself!
Reminded me of my brother's tale from when he was small
Dad & Alec (2 years old) had gone hunting for a rabbit
Alec insisted on carrying the rabbit home: dragging it
Struggling & very determined to get it home
He would not accept any help from my dad!
Though he was crying with exertion: he had to do it!
I can just imagine him as a little boy: crying but dragging
That poor dead bunny all the way home for dinner!
