I sawed the addigator

Yes that is the phrase I have heard all day. We have a nice sized pond in our back yard and it joins my parents land, two summers ago we discovered an alligator in the pond. WE have informed the game wardens and they said for us to leave it be unless we feel it poses a threat. I've only seen it on the bank once. SO anyways Nathan was down at his mawmaws yesterday and they were outside doing yard work and the alligator was out on a log sunning. Nathan got super excited and that's all he's been talking about. SO the mailman came by to drop off a package and here comes Nathan and here's what he had to say :
"hello i'm nathan"
mm-"Hi nathan how are you"
" I'm fine guess what"
mm-"What?"
"I sawed the addigator down at my mawmaws"
mm-"An alligator?? WOW"
"Yep want me to go show it to you?"
That's when I cut in and said come on Nathan the mailman is busy and has lots of stops to make. Aren't toddlers so funny?? So we are going to go for a walk later and see if we can see the "addigator" and if we do we'll share pics!! Have a Blessed Day!
