Yesterday I was raking the front yard and Aiden was playing in the dirt. He was so excited to find some earthworms and they became his playmates for a good 15 minutes.... until their fateful demise. From across the yard, he came running with the saddest look on his face. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A: "Mommy! I broke it!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Me: "You broke what, sweetheart?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A: "The worm! I broke the worm! FIX IT!!!"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Me: "I can't fix it."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A: "Yes you can! Oh, Mommy... please fix it. I'm so sad".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Me: "I can't fix it, darlin. It's an animal. Let's put him back under the rock with his mommy."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;While sending the poor worm "back to his mommy", A finds another worm and wants to play with it. He promises not to "break" it so I let him. Of course, he accidentally breaks the second worm and I make him go in the house for supper. Poor kid. Poor worms.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1189279898916143216-5917753838797195575?l=pwupnorth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pwupnorth.blogspot.com/feeds/5917753838797195575/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1189279898916143216&amp;postID=5917753838797195575' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1189279898916143216/posts/default/5917753838797195575'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1189279898916143216/posts/default/5917753838797195575'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pwupnorth.blogspot.com/2007/04/broken-worm-broken-heart.html' title='Broken Worm, Broken Heart'/><author><name>PW</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07277774370527910056</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
