One hell of funny story

Seriously, global warming is real. Don't even try to argue with me. It is going to be 70 today and check it, it's December. wtf? And meanwhile the Midwest is getting pounded. Planet earth is sick.

In other news I would like to relay a story from a classmate of mine. The people in this story are cousins of her sister in law. Characters: Mother, daughter (age 5), son (age 3) and extras who are the random zoo attendees.

Mother, daughter, son are at zoo. Mother goes to buy snacks, turns and son is gone. No where to be found. Zoo shuts down. Everyone who works for the zoo is looking for him. It's a mad all-out search.

Son appears.

In the penguin cage.

No lie. (enter new cast of characters: penguins). He jumped over 2 fences to get in the cage and was literally just playing with them. Mother is mortified and leaves zoo.

Mother, son and daughter are driving home.

Son, "Mommy, I have to tell you something, but I know you are going to be mad."

Mother, "I am already mad, so let's just wait."

A few minutes pass.

Son, "Mommy, I think I really need to tell you something but you might be mad."

Mother, "Okay, what is it?"

Son opens backpack. Out waddles a baby penguin.

No lie.

She then had to call the zoo, which was closed and return the penguin. It had to be quarantined for two weeks. True story from classmates, sister-in-law's cousin. :)
