Daddy, what's this?

Today, Porter and Joshua were sitting in the front room watching a movie. After a few minutes, Porter picked up something from the floor, and holding it up said, "Josh, what's this?" (because heaven forbid that child call him dad!) Josh looked at him in confusion, thinking it was a leaf or something carried into the house from someone's shoes. But, after turning on the lights and a more careful examination, he saw that it was a DEAD BIRD!!! We aren't really sure how the carcass found its way into the front room, since it looked to have been dead for a while. But, we were all sufficiently disgusted! I scrubbed Porter's hands with a vengence. It was so nasty!!!
