A little girl told her dad that she wanted a pony for her birthday.
"Please, pleeeeeeease can I have a pony?"
"Do you know what you have to do to take care of a pony? It's hard work, you know," he told her.
"I know, but I really really want a pony!" she said.
So when her birthday came around he decided to test her. He emptied out the shed and filled it with pony shit. On her birthday, he told her to cover her eyes and led her out to the shed. When she opened her eyes, he expected her to finally be rid of the desire to have a pony.
Instead, she grabbed a shovel and started digging like a maniac.
"Honey, what are you doing?" he asked.
She replied, "There's gotta be a pony in here somewhere!"
