Wild Thing

Rob went running. He always like to run the desert landscape near our house. This morning he came across what he calls a Desert Tortoise. I call it "get that thing out of my house". Let me paint you a picture: Rob is running and sees this thing on the trail. He thinks to himself "I will pick this up and carry it home for me kids to see". He gets home with it and yells up the stairs to me "I found a Desert Tortoise" (I am thinking tiny turtle.) He walks around the corner with this monster who is moving his head and legs like crazy hoping to escape. I screamed so loud it hurt my throat and promptly told Rob to get it out of my house. Elaine immediately was in love and Charlotte was in love from a distance. They followed him around the backyard and fed him before taking him back where he came from. Elaine named him Jack and says she loves him. If you ask Charlotte about him she will say she stepped on him (apparently, she got excited while following him and forgot to notice she could move faster than him) and that he pooped in the backyard. Fun for them but there is no pet in our future.
