it was moving around, but not running away like a mouse normally would. So I wasn't sure was it really a mouse, just delerious, or was it someone's pet hamster. I am a city girl, not use to mice, more use to hamsters. I quickly got all the animals back inside and prayed that the little animal would run out of my yard. Lucas and I then headed to the zoo to see large, not in my yard animals.
When we got home the little mouse was dead in the yard. What to do, I don't know. I've never had to get rid of an animal before, so I did what any grown woman would do and called my mommy. I did what she said and when Lucas went down for a nap and pick up it's little rigamortis body and dumped it in a field near our house. While carrying him I told him to rest in peace and please ask his friend not to die in my lawn.
Till Tomorrow

:) your so caring Jenn
Ive had to get rid of mice bodies before I dump them in the trash can
Oh my God, Jenn! I laughed SOOOOO hard when reading today's blog that I nearly peed my pants! It must be the week for rodents because we went through the very same thing earlier this week with a mouse in our front yard. It was probably injured but we decided to let nature take its course. We checked on it a couple of times but then in the morning it was gone. Whew!
Of course, I don't like the thought of what probably happened to a helpless mouse overnight but I resigned myself to the fact that nature takes its course.
Thanks for a great blog today!

Poor little guy.
I love the gorilla, they're my favorites at the zoo.
