We finally have a pet! Haha. Forrest found this beautiful guy under the wood pile outside. He's a Hobo spider, a relative of the brown recluse. The kids put him in a jar because they were so convinced that Mrs. Darling and especially Peter would appreciate being able to say hello to him. I'm not quite as sure the gesture will be appreciated, but for now the jar is in my kitchen, he is being fed flies and every time I reach for a plate.... there he is on the shelf. :)

Mrs. Darling's reaction to your new pet will definitely be blog-worthy. I'm looking forward to it, Kerri. :)

Oh creeps!!!!! Do you still have it? Im afraid Tink will have nightmares for years to come! Peter on the other hand cant wait to see it. I'll try to get over there this week.

He died yesterday, so I tossed him. I was a little concerned about what Tink would say too. :)

Don't feel stressed about getting over here, I know you guys are busy. Soon it will be fall and life will settle down...
