Meet Mohog


Mohog is the name Max gave to his new pet turtle. Max, Alex, and MiMi found a turtle on Mimi's land and decided to bring it home for a pet.  Max was so cute, he looked at me so excited and said, I've never had a pet before momma!  

Well we didn't want to be cruel so we let mohog "run" around in the backyard.  It was so cute how the kids wanted to give him water and grass for food. Our stories at bedtime that night were about mohog.  

Once upon a time there was a turle named mohog. He wondered all through MiMi's land looking for a home.  One day two boys named Max and Alex found him and rescued him. They brought him home, took him on a walk, and introduced him to his new backyard with a swingset and trampoline.  Mohog had all the water he could drink and all the grass he could eat.  Mohog had happy dreams that night and lived happily ever after.

Well...the next morning it appears mohog wondered undered our fence into our neighbors.  We decided to go on a walk - we found another turtle aka mohog, and brought him back home.  We had a turtle again!  until a hour later when he escaped.  than 2 neighbors down delivered our turtle, we had a turtle again! until the next morning he was gone again.  I haven't checked lately but you get the picture.  Sometimes we have a pet turtle now, sometimes we don't, but the kids are young enough for it not to bother them either way that much.  They love to have a turtle in the backyard as a pet, but they understand that he likes adventure too.  I think they are fun and easy, so I'm all for it.  The next turtle we find we can bring home too, and call him Mohog too!
