Here is a glimpse of what we experience everyday in taking care of three boys. Lion is pretty popular, especially when it comes to watching diesels or Thomas the Tank Engine. Meerkat is insistent each day to spend time with him watching trains. He even asks for his toast at the same time that Lion has toast. Now Otter is expressing an interest in choo-choos. I am pretty sure Wallaby will join in the fun a little further down the track.
Just before Christmas, we added a new addition to our family and his name is Ace. Meerkat's mom and dad have two dogs, a Lab and a Great Dane. They gave birth to puppies within a few weeks of each other, so they were taking care of 23 puppies all at once. They kept encouraging Rabbit to come see them all before they were adopted out. We weren't able to come to their house for a visit, so one day she brought two puppies to our house so we would have a chance to see them before they were all gone. Well, let's just say that one still did not have a home. He was the smallest of the litter, and he captured our hearts. We never thought we'd be dog owners, but he has now become one of the family. It's also very special that Meerkat and his mom still get to see him on a daily basis. Meerkat and Otter are both very expressive in their commentaries about Ace and Otter's demonstration of him drinking water is especially funny to watch. We have so much adventure around the den!
