Smelly things
It has been an event filled week here at our house. In addition to proof that animal death does come in 3’s, I have learned a few things and would like to share them:
- crawfish have hard shells, but rocks are harder and can break them.
- my 10yo cries VERY hard when his animals are assassinated by rogue 5yo little boys that do not belong to me.
- don’t bring 4 kids to a pet shop.
- fire bellied newts smell a bit like fish (as pointed out to me by my DH when he saw the fish tank in the boys room with the new creature swimming in it)
- "praying over the porcelan thrown" takes on a whole new meaning when your 7yo flushes his birthday fish (who met an untimely, mystery death on the same day the crawfish went to his maker) then kneels in front of the toilet and thanks God for "making such a special fish and sharing it with us".
- silk worm moths can sense death around them and like to be included.
- hide the amnimals when you have 14 kids, ages 5 and under, over for a play date.
Introducing Flame, the newest member of our growing family. May he stay on top of the rocks all of his days.
