EEEEK A Mouse!


I bravely caught a mouse in a jar today. (Having children has forced me to overcome much of my fears and squeamishness, after all I don't want to pass on those fears to my children) I found it in my laundry room, It was super cute, but not welcome in my home. I love and respect the creatures God created and I believe we need to care for them. But the minute they enter my house, I am no longer quite as keen of them. I'd much rather observe them in nature ;)
The girls enjoyed looking at the poor petrified little rascal for a few minutes, before we happily set it free in the field outback. Unfortunately, I'm sure it will find it's way back inside. ;(

Oh my gosh! I find this so funny...I am totally eeeked out by mice, but at the same time he/she is SO cute in that little glass jar! You could tie a ribbon around his neck and display him? My kids would love it if I was as brave as you! I think it's grosser to have to change a mouse trap with a poor mouse that met his demise at my hand. I always feel guilty...I'm sure my husband would roll his eyes at that statement!
