So Many Buddies...

  When I first moved out of my first mommy's place, I was a little worried. I had so many sisters, brothers and cousins, I thought I would be so lonely. But there was already a whole bunch of new buddies waiting for us. Not to mention, that my 1 brother, 2 sisters and 4 cousins came with me.  We met Prue, a mommy herself, she took care of us and her daughters became our sisters. And then, we met more buddies. 3 rambunctious boys, Ma calls them the Romeos, Sebbie the boss man and Captain the shy loner. I know we must get on some of the older rats' nerves with all our playing, jumping and screaming but sometimes they join in and play with us too. We live in a huge home now, it's a double up FNs, it opens up right onto the floor, I think that's so cool cause then we can escape so easily when Ma opens up the doors to clean up. Our play area is just so cool, I always want to go play. Since Ma put us all together, we've been getting over 2 hours of play time a day. How cool is that!! But then, we so deserve it, right? Cause I'm a princess. :)

 

Forgiveness

Ever wonder why moms and dads are quick to forgive? It's actually a work of art. I've seen some of the worst bites and yet the hoomins always end up forgiving. This is a sweet deal I think. Of course we can't help ourselves, sometimes we get scared, stressed, surprised or we jump on a potential treat that for some cruel reason wasn't actually there. Along with that forgiveness though, can come a price. I've seen some of the boys lose part of their boyhood after a bite. heehee Well of course they probably deserve it, they certainly do become nicer after it all.

But in the end, I so enjoy our hoomins, they are so easy to please, all you have to do is run and hop, run and hop, they call it popcorning. Whatever they want to call it, it sure makes them laugh, so I think we'll continue to do that, especially if it means they will forgive our inquisitiveness, especially when checking out toes, ear lobes and sometimes lips. We do know when we have gone too far cause the hoomins let out this blood curdling shriek. Makes me giggle each time.

So far, I've been good... I don't nip, bite or even rest my teeth on any part of my Ma. But I sure have been eyeing those toes of hers, I'm just waiting for the sock things to come off. *evil grin*
