Oh, Deer!

My parents are in town visiting us for Karly's birthday weekend.  We were all eating dinner tonight and heard a car honking down at the road.  I said, "Uh-oh....I wonder if someone hit a deer!"  It is the time of year where the deer are coming into our yard and trying to eat the pine needles from our pine trees.  My dad went to turn the porch light on to look out at the road to see if there was a car down there and if anyone needed assistance.  He came back to the table, sat down and said, "It must have been a miss."  Karly thought he meant it must have been a "Miss Deer" and not a "Mister Deer" that was hit...so she was appalled at his seemingly apathetic response. :)
