Little Boy, Big Heart

A little boy went out to his back yard one day to play, his mother sat watching him from the kitchen window while she did dishes so she knew he wouldn't get into any kind of trouble with mom watching him. He was unusually hot out but that didn't stop the little five year old as he went outside and began playing with a toy sword he was swinging and swinging his sword when he noticed a small bird landed on the bird bath but took off as soon as it landed, the boy found the problem when he walked over to the bird bath, there wasn't any water in there. So he went inside, "Mommy can I get a glass of water?" The mother looked at him and said "Of course baby." She handed him the cup of water and he went back to the bird bath and poured that cup in, when he saw just how little water there was in it he turned right around and went back inside "Mommy I need more water." Now the mother knowing what he was up to got a pan out and filled it up with water and walked out with him and poured the contents in "Alright little man now I'm gonna get back to my wash go back playing." The little boy was content for the moment so he went back to his toy sword and began swinging it again, he stopped when he saw a small bird land inside the bird bath he stood there watching as the bird splashed as much water as he could took a good long drink bounced its way to the edge of the bath and stood there looked at the boy for a moment and flew off onto the ground. The little boy was as happy as could be as a smile came onto his face but he knew there was something missing, so he walked back into the kitchen looked up at his mother and said "Thank you Mommy for filling the bird bath up now the birds will cool down." The mother couldn't help but give a motherly smile as she asked "What else do you want now baby?" The little boy smiled really big
"BREAD."
