About 10 or 12 years ago Julie and I bought a turtle for Emma for her birthday.. She always loved turtles and had several as pets over the years .. green sliders , painted and even had a pet snapping turtle that she had to let go because it would bite Bekah.
We were at the Bazzar and saw a Box turtle / tortise . It was just small and would be a nice quiet pet for her . Emma brought it with her to the farm and let the boys play with it . Then the boys were called for lunch and the went in and left "Turdy" un attended , and that's when they found out just how fast he was ...and just like that he was gone.
Now move forward 10 years and "Turdy" has shown up in the raspberry patch . So Julie has renamed him "Raspberry "
Raspberry is way bigger now. It's cool because Jengish and Emma will be back in a few weeks and it will be fun for Aiden to see his moms pet.
But speeking of new names . I was at the Bazaar today and picked up a couple turkeys . Julie has named them "Thanks giving" and "Christmas". For obvious reasons .
