More Life With Boys

Did I mention the lizard we found in our house? I thought it was a gecko but I was wrong. It looked exactly like this one.

I called NM over to see it and he said “oh wow, cool!” and the lizard did its best to scrunch itself up.

Next day, J calls to me “Mom, mom, mom, mom, mom! Come look at the cute, cute lizard in here!”  It was gone by the time I got there, though.

Just now, I heard J get upset.

“Oh no! Oh no,  Mom! Wookit!” he held the lizard by a toe, showing it to me. It was missing a tail and was stiff as a, well, as a dead lizard.

“Oh mom, it’s tail! It’s a broken lizard!” he was genuinely upset.

I had to turn away, I was laughing so hard.
