Our visitor, "Crush"

A few evenings ago,  my husband looked out our kitchen window and said, "What is Callie (our black lab) eating?" The kids and I took off to see, hoping it wasn't a baby bunny from the field next door. Instead we found her attempting to make a meal out of a box turtle. After rescuing it, we decided to keep is for a few days as a classroom pet/science center project. Of course, "Crush" will be safely released back into the wild this week as I am not a huge fan of wild animals being caged. For now however, the children are greatly enjoying him being with us.
