The Pecan Thief

When I was six years old,I was visiting my grandfather’ s farm in Kansas.Grandpa had sent me into the__21__to gather pecans for us to enjoy later.

Pecan picking was really__22__work and my little basket was only half full.I wasn’ t about to__23__Grandpa down.Just then something caught my__24__.A large brown squirrel was a few feet away.I watched as he picked up a pecan,hurried to a tree and__25__in a large hole in the trunk.A moment later the squirrel__26__out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut.Once again,he took the pecan back to his hiding place.

Not so__27__anymore,I thought.I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole.It was__28__with pecans!Golden pecans were right there for taking.This was my__29__.Handful by handful,I scooped all of those pecans into my basket.Now it was full! I was so__30__of myself.I couldn’ t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans.__31__,I ran back and shouted,“Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the basket and said,“Well,well,how did you find so many?” I told him how I’ d__32__the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.

Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’ d been in observing the squirrel and his habits.Then he did something that__33__me.He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently__34__my shoulders.

“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter__35__of food,” he said.“Now that all of his pecans are gone,don’ t you think that little squirrel will__36__the cold winter?”

“I didn’t think about that,” I said.

“I know,” Grandpa said.“But a good man should never take__37__of someone else’ s hard work.”

Suddenly I felt a bit__38__.The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t__39__my mind.There was only one thing I could do.I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.

I didn’t eat any pecans that night,but I had something much more filling-the  __40__of knowing I had done just the right thing.
