Panicked, I called the police. When they arrived, Kyle walked in and froze at the sight of officers. After some hesitation, he confessed: “The money’s mine. I was hiding it as a surprise—cashing out my savings for a trip to Hawaii.”
The officers chuckled, verified his story, and left, amused by Kyle’s unusual hiding spot.
Thanksgiving ended with laughter, Max getting extra turkey, and us planning our Hawaii trip. That trip became even more special—it’s where we conceived our baby.
Someday, I’ll tell our child how their dad’s “turkey cash stash” led to one unforgettable Thanksgiving.
Listen to your dogs—they might just save the day. Happy Thanksgiving!
