Class Pet

I've learned to give Lexie my undivided attention when she is asking me a question. Last week she was telling me about the class pets in Science. (I heard her mention hermit crabs.) She asked if she could bring a pet home for the weekend. I said as long as it's not a spider or snake. She laughed and said, "I told you what it was mom." I guess I wasn't really listening. The next morning she asked me to write a note saying it was okay for her to bring home an animal, so I did. This is what she brought home!!!




A RAT!!!!! Meet Bella the beautiful rat. UGH!
(It actually wasn't as gross as I thought it would be.)







Tink is interested in her new playmate. Yummy!
