A lizard story: homeless boy in box


Hello Family and Friends,

We all need some levity in the winter to cure those winter blues. Kids will do that at any time of the day.
We now have a homeless boy living in our home. A box was brought in and the littlest one of the home, won't mention any names, JAG, found his niche. A box to a kid is a spaceship, a boat, a hideout, a place to read books or in JAG'S world it's a bed.

DAY ONE (taken with big sisters camera phone)

found box
found covers and pillows- in box
found books to read- in box
found phone to talk on -in box
found tatoo's on legs- in box

DAY TWO
is determined to sleep in box
got his shoes and lined them up, why? he can?
homeless people need shoes
We did our usual bedtime ritual and he hopped in the box to sleep, a photo for photo sakes...
we left the room... was good till commotion in kitchen over sink jammed up!
When I went back to room, in big sisters bed, he was sorry.. so back to his box (now threaten to go to HIS BED if not quiet)

DID HE OR DIDN'T HE SLEEP IN THE BOX??

I'll let you know tomorrow...
