R.I.P. Jet Black Reynolds



Jackson's hamster died this week.  It was so sad.  He was such a good, sweet little pet for Jackson.  Jackson really wanted a pet for a long time.  He had to work hard to earn his hamster--convincing me and with good behavior.  He also did a great job of taking care of him.  He cleaned his cage out and always made sure he had plenty of food and water.  "Hammy"  as we nicknamed him had quite a few adventures.  He was a great escape artist and would chew his way out of his exercise ball and run it over and over again into the wall until the lid popped open and he escaped.  He also escaped once from his cage and we found him in Robert's suitcase hiding out with provisions.  I would often come into Jackson's room when Jackson was upset and find him cuddling and loving Jet to help soothe his hurt feelings.  I really never thought we would all get so attached to a Hamster but we did.  He was fun to watch and play with and we will really miss him.

The last picture is maybe one of the saddest I've seen. So sorry for everyone's loss.

Hello, blog update! I missed your last one, but it made me giggle, especially the call of duty pic, Max's wocket and your g's. Shame on you for not telling me about the 5k! Then again, I think March was a little too crazy for a 5k anyway.

Also, I'm so sorry about your hamster!!! =( I thought I heard you say at pizza last night that he had died. Maybe Jackson is ready for a snake now? ;)
