Hiding in the grass

I got a call from my mother this morning, she watches Braison and Lilian while Ron and I work, to ask about a snake in our yard.  The kids were telling her about the snake that they found in the backyard yesterday, how it was in the grass, how they held it and pet it, and telling her the "sssssss" noise that snakes make.
Anyway, she called me to ask about the snake that we had found.  I asked her what she was talking about, and she relayed to me what the kids were telling her, while standing at the back door, reliving their experience.
That is when my laughter began, why you ask?  Because the "snake" that they were telling their Nana about was actually a 1/2" worm that we had found in the dirt.
