I fear the squirrels will have a difficult time making it through winter because of the stores of acorns we are bringing into the house. McKenzie has made it her personal mission to collect all acorns found lying in our yard, and there are a lot. I've tried to convince her that they are best left outside, but she insists on bringing them inside and keeping them in various cups and buckets. I've recently resorted to hiding them from her in hopes that she will forget about her new game "Put an Acorn in my Mouth Then Run Away from Mommy." She's very good at this game.
