Happy to see this wasn't a tragedy. 🙂 Unfortunately, that's often the case when small kids and small animals mix. My niece accidentally crushed a baby chick (the adult's fault for not watching closely enough). My sister was upset that I told my niece the chick had died, and wasn't just "sleeping" or hurt. But I think learning the cycle of life and cause and effect is an important lesson, even at a young age.

Thankfully, though, that wasn't the case for your family today.
