Awana & A New Pet

I wish I could have been a part of a program like AWANA when I was growing up. It has been so amazing for Mikayl. She has learned so much and it's cool to see her grow in learning God's word and his love for her. Thank you to all who have made that ministry great! Mikayl was pleased to bring her friend Megan (my former student) along too. And of course we met up with our favorite 4 yr old friend Amaiya during the dinner.





Now on to our pet rats. I know many of you think we're crazy for having rats for pets. In fact, I thought it was weird and frankly disgusting when I was first introduced to them. Well, after seeing how much Jefferson & Mikayl love them and play with them, I've gotten over it and I now can play with them too. In fact it's kind of fun to walk around the house with a little animal on yor shoulders playing in your hood! They can be cute, it just takes awhile to allow our brains to comprehend that rats can be cute. We had 2 rats named Sweets and Tips and Sweets recently passed away. SO we went to buy a new white rat last night and because of her beedy little red eyes Mikayl chose to call her Rasberry (both her and Daddy's favorite berry). Her nickname is Raz. Tips is finally getting used to her and being nice to her.
