The cliche "no good deed will go unpunished" springs to mind.

So, I am cutting the grass last night on my new-to-me Cub Cadet and 
enjoying myself.  My son (6 years old) was out in the yard playing.

As I took a pass up the yard I noticed a rabbit nest in the grass.  I 
shut the mower off and called my son over to see them.  They were about 
5" long, 3 of them all cozied up in a small depression.

My son was immediately worried about my hitting them with the mower.  So 
I fetched a small orange traffic cone out of the shed and placed beside 
the nest.  I told my son that I will cut way out around them and they 
should be fine.  He placed the cone directly over them for extra 
protection and stood guard.

I started the tractor and finished the pass.  Then I turned around and 
headed back toward the cone, my son and the rabbit's nest.  As I 
approach, I swung way out to my right and around.  About 6 or 7 feet 
past the nest I hit the brakes and shout to my son "see, I missed them".

Just then, the cone topples over and 3 tiny bunnies shoot out of the 
hole.  One jumped into the fallen cone, the other one shot across the 
yard and under the fence 4 feet away and...you guessed it, that last son 
of bitching rabbit ran 6 or 7 feet and went right under the running 
mower deck.  WTF!!!

I quickly looked around to see if he miraculously made it under the 
tractor some how but all I saw was a piece of bunny scalp with a little 
ear.  F-me.  My son freaked out and started crying.  That cut the 
evening short as I took him in and tried to comfort him.

Damn, somebody get me a beer...
