Boot Surprise!

I sware, in nearly every situation no matter how bad it may seem, there is usually something to laugh about. It's another morning that was ruined by water in the basement for the second week in a row. However, as mom was putting her boots on to go down and wade over to check the breaker box, she noticed something in her boot - so she pulled it out: a leaf. She proceeded to push her foot the rest of the way in, but something was in the way...

...as you all know mom's greatest fear and first thought was: A MOUSE! She dumped the boot over and out came...a bird!???! A DEAD bird, that is. We have no idea how that happened - the boots were in the closet!?! She had told me about this over chat. While I was in class, she suddenly popped up and said "There's water in the basement again..." and before I could get any basement info she was going off on the bird story!

Haha! Anyway, when I came home there was a little cool whip container upside down in the middle of the hallway right inside the door. I thought I would show you all a picture of our little friend. He must have gone into the boot thinking it would make a nice birdhouse and then couldn't get out because he appears to have nothing wrong with him.
