Turtle Sunday

Check out what Mom and Aunt Liz brought me yesterday afternoon. (Well, Mom picked it up and Liz just watched b/c she doesn't like germy things, especially bugs or apparently turtles!) They saw this little guy trying to cross the road on their way home from Wally World and Mom jumped out of the car and scooped him up to bring him home to me. Before I got to see him up close, Dad had to do a little research on the Internet to make sure I wasn't a snapping turtle. After concluding I was some sort of box turtle, we got to "play" with him.

I tried to feed him a strawberry, but he was NOT interested. 

I also got to touch his shell and feel his sharp claws. It was so much fun to see him go in and out of his shell. Mom loves when fun experiences can be educational too.  We let him go in the back yard and we haven't seen him since. Maybe he will come out to "play" again soon.
