Lizzards Don't Like Peanut Butter




Avril caught a lizzard Saturday. I think it wasn't fully alive when she got it because it didn't scurry away like they normally do, but it was alive enough to walk around a bit and they had a great day together. It died after an hour or so but she thought it was just sleeping. The whole thing was completely disgusting but if you know Avril, you know she loves everything crawly and I just couldn't break her heart and take it away. There was a point in the afternoon where Avril and lizzard were making a beeline to lunch and the phrase "lizzards don't like peanut butter" was the quickest thing I could think of to keep her at bay. The obsurdity of it was hilarious and mom and I didn't stop laughing for quite some time. I'm sure it is one of those things you had to be there for. We had to put lizzard outside during the party and afterward he played on the swingset with her and luckily got lost in the grass. She cried for a long time but today she hasn't mentioned it.
