A Pet Flooded Neighborhood


I found this gray garden snake on the sideway
in the front yard one day in the morning...


One day after my daughter came back from her buddy's house, she complained to me "No fair! How come I can't have pets like Zoey??? She has four cats, a lizard, and a hamster! Besides, her dad even almost stepped on a baby rabbit and a turtle when he was mowing their yard..." So, can I have a pet, please, Mom.." I patiently explained to her "Honey, we already have bumble bees, wasps, beetles, flies, mosquitoes buzzing and birds singing around our house during the day, opossums, raccoons, squirrels come to chewing at night, and we even have a garden snake slithering along our side way, how many more pets do you want?"

Cardinals and robins come to our back yard almost everyday...




The top two road killed animals in the town..
Next time when you see a possum lying on the road,
they are not "playing dead", they are actually dead!!

  2. I don't like snake either, so I just ran away and did not dare to step on the yard for three days...

  4. This is my first time to visit your "garden", and i found this is a great way to get updated on the daily life of who I care a lot....
    The way you handled Jeremia's request is very smart.... I am looking forward to seeing you and the kids again soon.
