What a fun Monday for the boys! Doug had all the boys today since Patti is having her arm operated on - and he was a bit nervous about surviving the day. However, it turned out to be a great day all around! Doug took the boys to 'the Big House' and when they were playing in the sun room they found a little baby possum that had fallen into a big cardboard box and gotten stuck. They probably saved its' life - as it seems to have been there a few days and was really thirsty.
After Doug made sure it wasn't injured and in relatively good spirits
(as far as possum's go) the boys picked him up and delivered him to
outside to a nice puddle on the concrete so he could drink. Then they
took off across the yard looking for a good place to let him go so he
could "find his momma." And yes, Gabe kissed his tail.
I don't know how it is that they always find this cool stuff when they are with Doug. In the last few weeks they have seen the possum, a swarm of bees, and several snakes. They are outside boys if there are were such a thing!
