A father watched his young daughter playing in the garden. He smiled
as he reflected on how sweet and pure his little girl was. He had a lump in
his throat as he thought about her seeing the wonders of nature. Suddenly
she just stopped and stared at the ground. He went over to her to see what work
of God had captured her attention. He noticed she was looking at two
spiders mating.
'Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?' she asked.
'They're mating,' her father replied.
'What do you call the spider on top?' she asked. 'That's a Daddy Longlegs,'
her father answered.
'So, the other one is a Mommy Longlegs?' the little girl
asked.
As his heart soared with the joy of such a cute and innocent question replied, 'No dear. Both of them are Daddy Longlegs.'
The little girl, looking a little puzzled, thought for a moment, then took
her foot and stomped them flat, saying, 'Well, we're not having any of that
Brokeback Mountain shit in our garden.'
