The hawks were flying low giving my poor ladies hungry eyes. This always freaks me out. I noticed the hawks while I was in my front yard and I ran through the house to the back where my sweet chickens were happily clucking away and eating bugs. I think they know by now that if I run through the house and out the back (I’m very clunky and loud), it is time to stop and take notice of me. I have done this many times and each time they always perk their little heads up and watch me. When I call them urgently back to their covered run they don’t argue and go right in. I’m not sure if they fully understand me, and if they know I am trying to protect them, but I would like to think they do.

Fresh out of college, Shannon Wheaton signs up for two years in the Peace Corps and gets exactly what she expects: a mud hut, a boisterous host family, no running water or electricity, and endless days of shelling peanuts.

The day we blew up the cat: And other stories from a normal childhood (The Dad Story Project Book 1)
S. Peter Lewis
(38 Reviews)
Genre: Parenting & Relationships
FREE for a limited time
“Tell me a story.” It’s one of humanity’s universal requests. And it makes perfect sense since each of our lives is simply a string of days earmarked by the circling sun and regular eight-hour naps — we each live just one long story. This is a book of stories: fifteen heartwarming essays that are sure to make you smile and laugh, and maybe even shed a tear or two. It’s a celebration of the notions that fatherhood and childhood are meant to be tightly stitched together, that a dad and his children really grow up together, and that wonder will be found everywhere if we just keep our eyes and hearts open. These are simple, peaceful, introspective stories that quietly proclaim the idea that growing up can be incredible and that amazement and inspiration can always be found in the simple elements of Everyday. The stories have been selected from among more than 200 that the author, Peter Lewis, originally published in his column, Views from the Uppermost House, in his hometown newspaper in rural Maine. The column won top journalism awards in Maine every year from 2006 to 2013, and is still going strong.
