He's having a bit of a difficult time adjusting to his best buddy, roommate and oldest brother being gone. He's been asking for a pet.  He knows dogs are off limits for now and just cats aren't an option.  (sorry Jen) So this last week he asked his dad if he could have a pet gopher snake.  His dad's response:

"The only thing your mother hates worse than snakes is a snake.  She can't kill them or run over them fast or often enough."

Guilty as charged.

So when my poor son came across a toad and named it Fred,  he was thrilled...

until his dad made him set it free.

But now he's over it and has his sights set on getting a BB gun.  Now, that, you can have, dear son.

Anything to aid my quest in the reduction of the snake population..
