Today was hot… and I don’t cope well with the heat.
By the time that the kids came home from school, I was ready to find a nice quiet corner and have a quick snooze before heading out to the school picnic.
Just as I was getting myself settled, I hear Master Ten calling out from his bedroom:
“MUUUUUUMMMMM… I think that LIZARDY has escaped!”
Usually Lizardy doesn’t stay in the bedroom. But today there was a crochet meet at my place, and I thought that he might be safer away from toddler fingers. So Master Ten had hidden the pet box away in his room.
Which seemed like a good idea at the time…
And I was really puzzled about how the lizard could have possibly escaped…
So the questions began:
mum – “Where did you leave his box?”
boy – “On my bed”
mum – “How do you think he got the lid off?”
boy – “I didn’t put it on”
mum – “Why not?”
boy – “I didn’t know that I had to”
Well, after much searching, we finally located the the little creature INSIDE my son’s pillowcase! Glad he was discovered BEFORE bedtime…
I'm not good with anything having to do with reptiles, so sorry I won't show any compassion or understanding :/ But I am glad you found it :)
ReplyDeleteWow Sharon, I really don't care for reptiles either but I don't mind lizards as much. lol I had two boys that I raised and I know exactly what you're talking about. Gosh the stuff the can get into.
ReplyDeleteWe could do with a bit of heat over here in chilly grey Britain...today I spotted some depressed snow flakes sulking on an icy wind!
ReplyDelete(p.s. what a gorgeous lizard!)
