Against my advice, Ryan brought home a baby turtle for Dylan. Now, don't get me wrong, he was a cutie....in a weird, turtle kinda way (obviously not too cute--i didn't even take his picture). He was the size of a quarter!! Dylan loved "Tuck", but after her handling him CONSTANTLY & putting her hands in her mouth repeatedly (DISgusting), Ryan saw the light...Tuck had to G.O. (thank you, God)
I sent out several plea's via Facebook & finally, we found a taker... thank you, Ashley!! Ryan delivered Tuck to his new mommy today, & we were a little worried how Dylan would handle it once she saw he was actually gone. I had been telling her for 2 days that Tuck had cried all night for his mommy so we were going to have to take him home. Every time I would say that, she would get pretty upset (mad), but I was hoping it would help ease the pain of the empty Tupperware bowl (which was thrown away after Tuck moved out). Come to find out, she didn't even miss him or ask about him for hours. No tears were shed...Hallelujah!! I think our trip to Hobby Lobby helped the situation. I caved & bought her a birdhouse to paint, so after that, she was SOOOO over the turtle. She has moved on to Habitat for Humanity...birdie style!! :)
