Black-eyed Shane
























A couple of weeks ago {I never seem to post soon enough} Sarah and a friend were performing
on her stage to an Alvin and the Chipmunks CD. Shane was wanting to participate in the fun, but
was a little shy. So...he was rolling around on the
stage being funny and kicked over Sarah's pink guitar. (I mention this because of course it would be pink...those of you that know my girl, know that most things for Sarah are pink! ) The key used for tighting the keys hit Shane right on the outside corner of his eye. It started as a little mound, and then over the next few days spread out and turned his eye-lid this purple/blue color. We have been teasing him about it looking like eye makeup. ;)

Since I am posting this so long after the fact, I can report that his eye is all better, and luckily there was no long term damage.

On another note, this rodent he is holding is Whiskers, our second hamster. Sarah found Princess dead one day in April when she went up to her room after school to play with her. Steve took her to PetSmart to pick a new friend. Yes, Whiskers does look exactly like the other one, but is a little fatter. She is not quite as sweet as Princess was, but she tolerates Shane so she is a "keeper." The hamster cage is back in our front room...who needs a formal dining room anyway?

Don't most people's hamsters have their own room?
