Carrie signed Shane up for TKD day camp Monday, so she could work and do barn chores without him underfoot. She went to pick him up while I made pierogis for dinner.
I was surprised when they brought a tadpole home.
Shane caught the tadpole at a park during day-camp. He begged Mommy to keep it.
Carrie's a soft spot for any animal. She took Shane to Petsmart and looked up what we'd need. It cost $23 that Shane didn't have. Carrie made him promise to do his reading and writing for the next 5 weeks or we'd ditch the tadpole.
They set to work making a tank/future-terrarium once they got home.
I was a little annoyed they were so late when I'd timed dinner (and left the oven on for Carrie's mini-pizza), but I had to admit it was a cool Shane and Mommy shared moment.
Shane won't stop checking on the little guy and Carrie keeps popping over, as well. Like mother, like son!
