Sad Day in the house
Over the last couple of days, Ean’s pet anole, Widget has been not eating and has been hiding more than normal from the male anole in the tank. April said today that the male was being rough and her and I guess it was too much. Widget passed away today.
We had talked about death to Ean previously but today was the time that he actually saw it close up. It was pretty emotional to see a 3 year old cry because his lizard wasn’t going to be around any longer.
Here is a picture of Ean went he first got his anoles.
Saying his last good byes:
Placing Widget in her resting place:
Final farewell:
Ean is doing ok, but it has made everyone a bit sad to for Widget and Ean.
I don’t look forward to this day (my son is just under 3 months old). Love this blog btw – am sure one day your kids will love being able to look back at all the memories you have captured and preserved!
Thanks for the praise. I started it for distant family that don’t get to the see the kids regularly, but also with the intent that the kids can look back in the future as well.
