RIP Katie Gerbil
Katie the gerbil passed away last week. Ben discovered her on Friday morning, but she probably died the day before.
Ben told Mommy, "I think Katie's dead. I tried to sit her up and she kept falling over." That visual is macabre but somehow hysterical.
Ben did a good job of not telling Anna all day long. Daddy told Anna when she got home from school. She only cried a little bit, then again at bedtime when she looked at the cage.
Anna plans to keep Sparkle the remaining gerbil happy with extra toys and lots of attention.
