Hammers and nails and puppy dog tails, that is what I have always heard that little boys were made of but in this case I do believe that it is hammers and snails and puppy dog tails!!
My ds#1 found this snail a few days ago and brought it home in this cup and it was the neatest thing, ds#2 just loved to watch it move. He was facsinated with it.
My sister Joy stopped by and he just had to show her the snail, They had the best time playing with that thing. Thanks Aunt Joy for showing my baby that much love and attention.
I just love his expressions,you can read every little thought that goes through his mind.
We kept that snail for about 2 weeks, ds#1 took it to school with him to show it to all his buddies there, We finally let him go on Monday, I am sure that he was glad to get back to all his friends, Oh and by the way his name, Sticky Slimy Snail !!
What cool creatures have you found to play with lately, I saw this huge turtle on the road the other day and almost stopped to get him but I thought he might have been a snapping turtle and I didn't wnat none of that, Anyways, I just love finding neat interesting things in nature and now that spring weather is here I am sure there will be a lot more discoveries.

You are sooo much better then I am, LOL. I have 5 boys and so far I have tollerated the worms being brought to me to see, but I can't touch them. And just tell them that the worms are so much happier if left at home with their families. So please put them back. ; )
