Yeah, Good Luck With That

It took two full days of tears (mainly mine!), to convince hubby to get our cat. He doesn’t hate animals, but lived in a pet-less household & doesn’t enjoy sharing space with them. That said, he loves our cat & she is crazy in love with him.

So, yesterday, when we visited the pet store & the kids begged me for a snake, you will note my reply in the title of this post.

To his credit, he did not say no, nor did he say yes, he said, not now. And, it’s true. The kids don’t help with our cat’s upkeep, beyond feeding her on occasion.

But today finds them cleaning their rooms with a gusto heretofore unseen! And singing the, “We’re Getting a Snake” song….

He’s been named Justin, by the way, even though he is still a figment of their collective desires.
