the burial
Today we buried Tack. Wyatt has not said much about it except at school yesterday they were working on the letter “F” and of course they talked about frogs. Ms. Jennifer mentioned him talking about something dying but she thought it was a cat. Ha ha. He recovered quickly from all this and today, on this gorgeous sunny day, we buried Tack in the backyard. Andy got his shovel and one for Wyatt.
We asked Wyatt if he wanted to say anything and he said I think his eyes are closed. And that was that. They put Tack in the ground.
Wyatt covered him up with dirt. And then he went on his merry way. He asked me the other night through tears…we still have Lilly, right Mommy?
Oh yes, we still have Lilly {the beast}.

AND....since Jason has a basement full of reptiles...he just told me to tell you guys that when you all are ready, and when you feel Wyatt is ready, we will give you a leopard gecko for your boys and even provide food for it. Jason has several and they are breeding and he even breeds the food (crickets, meal worms, etc.)....just food for thought. :)
