I don't know if you should replace it or not... if you do, definitely don't pretend it is the same one! :)A New England Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14016162084810966866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38919712995021162.post-3800441087907026762009-12-17T12:33:03.917-06:002009-12-17T12:33:03.917-06:00I don't think you were harsh at all - regardin...I don't think you were harsh at all - regarding the replacement of the critter for Rush.<br /><br />I am wondering about Jellybean and Bug; they have gotten so attached to those guys.

It was her responsibility, and she, well, she failed. Or, maybe, dropped the ball is a little softer. But you get what I mean. Maybe that's an answer that lacks in grace, or tenderness, but that's the reality of her choices. But I can say that more, um, coldheartedly because she's not my daughter. Maybe compassion is needed? I dunno, you're the mom. You decide. Maybe poor old Rodriguez died of a broken heart from her leaving. Ok, is that too sad. Sorry. I'll just stop now.All My Monkeyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05250378223599352702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38919712995021162.post-63286846047230028312009-12-16T21:26:40.368-06:002009-12-16T21:26:40.368-06:00I wouldn't replace it, but I don't like cr...I wouldn't replace it, but I don't like creepy crawly things, either. I had to laugh when you mentioned it pretending to be dead. Just yesterday I told my husband that he had to take care of the mouse present one of my cats brought to the back door because I couldn't do it since there was a good chance said mouse would actually wake up and chase after me.
