Steve the Bumble Bee... pffft

   My Mamma was mowing the grass in the garden one day, bout two weeks ago. We has a push mower that is environmentally friendly, so it makes a little noise only. She was mowing along when suddenly she heard "BZZZZZZZZZTDS", it sounded like she mowed over a Bumble Bee! Welp, she did just that. Just then she saw Steve (I named him, after Steve Buscemi because this Bee is full of Badassedness) hop hop hopping away through the lawn. She mowed off one of his wings! I immediately started to begin a game of tag, but Mamma told me to stop cuz she was afraid my new friend would sting my paw.
   Ever since then, we see him walking and hopping all over the yard. He still only has one wing (poor guy). Fortunately he is still doing okay, and is even growing bigger! Yesterday we picked a bouquet of flowers for him and he ferociously  chowed down on the yummy goodness pollen. He was very happy, and now we have that Bumble Bee song stuck in our heads on repeat.

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Ouch! It stung me!
I'm squishing up the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
I'm squishing up a baby bumblebee,
Ooh! It's yucky!
I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Now my mommy won't be mad at me!
