Dealing

Dealing with Chance's death is harder then I thought.

I knew it was coming

yet every time I pass his cage I want to reach out and put my hand on his nose

or

as I compute, put my hand on the bottom glass wall

where he would walk over and start his head bobbing

saying

Hi mom!

Who knew a Iguana could be such a cool pet!

We buried him in his home made casket and

a headstone so the dog won't dig him up.

My husband made both of them

and did a great job!

I know he's running around and swimming

in God's jungle now

and the thought of that makes me smile!
