Flower




Eric fell in love Saturday - with a guinea pig. Oh, he loved that little thing. We were at his friend Magdalen's birthday party, and the kids were all wanting to see the guinea pig. Eric was happy to pet her with the other children and enjoyed watching her, but once he got to hold her, it was all over. The boy was not going to move again. He sat for 20 minutes or more holding Flower and not moving an inch. The kids covered her with what he calls a "cape" in the video so that she would not be cold. I just thought it was so sweet. Don't anyone get any ideas for his birthday. We do not need another pet. But, we are now the official guinea pig sitters for whenever her family leaves town.

Now I know what to get Eric for Christmas! He looks adorable holding and caring for the guinea pig. I was able to watch the video, but I couldn't get the sound. I like the new picture you posted of your family. That is a really good picture, especially of you. Where were you when you had it taken?

We both think this is one of the cutest and sweetest videos of Eric! We love the part when he says, "He's squeaking!". :) We love you!
