We were on our way home from the dog park when all heck broke out the car. "Something's wrong with Lucy!" Heidi cried. "She won't settle! I think it's a... BUG!"
Heidi hates bugs.
"What kind of bug?" I asked.
"I don't know! I can't see it! It's there though! I think it bit her!" Panic was rising in Heidi's voice.
"Should I pull over?" I asked, scanning the road for turn-offs and seeing none.
"It's some kind of fly!" Heidi reported.
"A deerfly?" There was one on our windshield when we left the park, and I had felt lucky we hadn't seen any before that. "Is it small and arrow-shaped?"
"That's it!" Heidi said. "It's trying to get her!"
"Swat at it so it doesn't land on her until I can find a place to stop," I advised.
"Oh my god!" Heidi gasped. "I GOT IT!"
Yes! With one mighty smack, Heidi had rescued Lucy from the evil deerfly.
"When it comes to saving my baby," she continued, "I don't play!"
