We, Derick and I, and his brother Ben, and his wife Emily, and their son Nathaniel, spent Friday night cleaning out what was left in mom's house so that the Gregory's can move in next weekend. We were just finishing up, and I went around the house turning off all of the lights. As I cut the lights in the living room, I happened to notice something dark perched on top of a curtain rod. I thought to myself, "Now, who would stick something up there?"
Then, to my horror, I realized that it might possibly be something living perched up there! I cautiously turned back on the light and found this little guy who stared at me with his big yellow eyes as if to say: "Who do you think you are flipping those light on and off?!"
What next?
When one of the little girls in swim class this week was asked to name something she should not play with at home, she responded, "Tigers--they will bite you."
I hope I never awaken to find biting tigers in my house.

Lions and tigers and bears, Oh My!
Wonder how long he had been there....I have not cleaned in a month...maybe he was there all along and we did not know it!!!! He was enjoying watching us pack and pack and pack and pack and laughing at us all the while...."all that stuff!" says he...."Just fly away and find a new home in Florida"....I miss both you and Sariah's laughter....come see me soon....love ya mum.....xoxoxox
wow! i wonder if he flew in the window upstairs while it was out for the bed removal. amazing that you are holding him. how ever did you do that? i would have thought he would flap wildly about and have to be shooed to safety.
i know you love animals Ari no matter how annoyed you try to sound. Lizzy's going to be just the same.
Actually Ben caught him while Derick and I blockaded the room exits. It seems that when you get married there are suddenly things you shouldn't do because you have a man around to do them. I am still having a hard time with this one, of course.
Holy crap, Ariana! Remember me? I found you through Colista's blog. Congratulations on getting married this summer, and I see you are in OH. Not to far from me, I'm still up here in MI. Come check out my blog!

Ariana, it's about time we talk. I've lost your phone number and can't find your email address (but I have a guess, so I'll try it), so I think you'd better give me a call. It sounds like you're doing great. Talk to you soon.
L-l-l-love, Erin
