The New Pet

Went to the pet store to get a new pet A Gecko was the one I really wanted and yet Maybe bird, frog, or gerbel No definitely not a slow creeping turtle A lizard was truly the only choice When I bought her she had no voice Quietly I brought this beauty home Now I need to give her a name with the right tone She is a girl a real beauty Needs a name that is truly suited I know that it needs to be beautiful also I have it now Elizzardbeth the cutie (We will leave early tomorrow for Ft. Gordon for the second time to try for our son's surgery. Thanks to everyone for the prayers issued up for us and our son Tommy, Jr. We will be gone until he is okay.Thanks for all the comments and prayers ...I will try to catch up when we are back home.)

Such a sweet write, my friend Sara. I haven't been online lately too much, so I didn't find out about your son until now. My prayers are with you and your family. I wish you all the best, Emily

Prayers coming your way, dear. I love the name you chose for your gecko. They eat bugs and nead virtually no care so she should be fine while you are in Ft. Gordon. Soup mail coming shortly. Love, Carolyn
