Leah really wants a pet. Really
REALLY wants a pet. She talks about getting a pet all the time. She asks me at least 5 times a day if she can please have a pet. Thankfully, we are renting and the owners of the house don't want us to bring in any large animals, so getting a dog is out of the question. Not that I'm even considering getting a dog at this point. Some day, yes. Today, no.
But that doesn't stop Leah from pretending that she has pets. The dying Asian beetles continue to be a great source of entertainment for both kids.
Today Leah tried being a cat. Which lasted about 2 minutes before the milk spilled all over the floor, which Adam happily splashed in before I could wipe it up.
And Leah has trained Adam to crawl around on all fours and pant like a puppy dog.
He'll even fetch her things and retrieve balls that she tosses. And then she rewards him with a good scratch on the back. They both love it.
And that's about the most pet we'll be seeing around here for a while, despite Leah's requests for a cheetah.

You should get her a fish! Low maintenance, but still something she could name, and feed, and call her own:)
