How we get our turkey

Let's talk turkey. Today Harrison came home from school with his interpretation of how turkeys get to our Thanksgiving table. Here is his storyboard creation.

Step One: The turkey is running around happy and carefree and loving life not knowing of it's impending doom.



Step Two: The turkey becomes scared and bolts when he figures out that someone has come to catch him.



Step Three: The turkey is unable to escape and meets his fate when he is slaughtered with an axe. Am I wrong to be disturbed by the fact that my 7 year old portrays the slaughter of a turkey so descriptively?





Step Three: The turkey has been baked and prepared for us to eat on Thanksgiving.



Happy Turkey Day.
