adventurous day

We had an adventurous day today.  It all started when we were outside watching the firemen and paramedics get an old man out of his car and onto the stretcher. He  had turned into oncoming traffic and his car was struck on both sides~ right in front of my house!  I called 911 and took it as an opportunity to teach my son that is what you do ONLY when someone is hurt.
While we were watching the tow trucks load up the cars, I heard both my kids yelling " No Sookie you're a bad cat, Sookie!"  I turned to see why they were yelling at my fat lazy cat who doesn't have the energy to be bad and saw that he had found a baby bird and apparently it gave him lots of energy as he was chasing it and jumping around (which he just doesn't do)!
I pushed Sookie back and grabbed the bird and checked for injuries and there were none visible, but I was worried about internal injuries.
 I already have 2 finches and a parakeet in the same cage in the house.   I have an extra cage in the shed so I put it in the cage and took it in the house so I could watch it for a while and make sure it is not hurt. 
Well my son(Kylan) decided that the baby bird was probably hungry and since it didn't have it's mom and dad in the house to feed it, we would have to be it's mom and dad.  Even though he won't touch worms he suggested that we go worm hunting.  We found quite a few since it has been raining all week.  And guess what- he and AshLynn,2, both held the worms!  Ashy isn't scared of anything unless she sees Kylan being scared of it so I let her hold the worms first and then to be brave like baby sissy, Kylan had to hold it~of course!
Well the bird seems fine and I know I should let it go and cats catch birds~ fact of life, but I just can't put it outside and let it become cat food!  It is so cute!
