WHAT Bit You?

Timothy came in the house yesterday afternoon holding a finger that was covered with blood.  

Naturally, I was curious.  "What happened to you?"

"An ant bit me!"

"An ANT did that to you??"  I exclaimed as I watched the blood puddle on my floor.

"Yeah!  One of those big ones."  Yeah, big like the size of a man-eating tiger!!  "I killed it."

Couldn't say I blamed him.  I cleaned off the blood and slathered the quarter-inch long gash!!! with antibiotic cream and sent him off to play.  He volunteered to stay away from the ants.

And I'm not going outside again without a Really Big Hammer!
