Day of the Dung Beattle

In my English class my sophmore year of high school, we read The Poisonwood Bible - which is a wonderful book, and I highly sugest it if you're a fan of liturature - in which the entire story is told through the perspective of a mother and her four daughters. In class we had an assignment where we had to write a passage from the father's perspective and I found it recently and figured what better place to post it than here?

Note: If you haven't read, or aren't familiar with Poisonwood Bible this may make absolutely no sense.
