He's baaaack!

The girls found a turtle last summer in the back part of our yard. Ray suggested we put a nail polish mark on its back so that if we found a turtle again, we would know if it was that one.

Well, they found it.

Sunday, they came storming into the house screaming, "Mom, Mom, look! It's our turtle! It came back!"

Sure enough, the sparkly pink nail-polish was still there. I made them take it outside where Emily began to tease Hannah with it.




It's funny to watch Emily comfortable handling this creature and Hannah scared out of her wits!
Mr. Turtle, however, wasn't very happy; he did not emerge from his shell. Can't say I blame him with Emily shoving him in Hannah's face and Hannah squealing like a little girl. If I had a shell, I would have crawled in it too!
