The Pet Experiment

For a few weeks, we got to experience what it was like to be pet owners. We were asked to watch both a dog and a cat by two different friends, so we thought it would be a great chance to see if we'd like to get a pet of our own. The boys loved it, and it was kind of nice to have animals around again, but we also realized that our life is full enough right now without adding that extra responsibility. But it was fun while it lasted. It even worked out well that the dog's name was Gus, so Ethan was all ready (see the previous post about Psych). Even now, all dogs are named Gus in his mind. He also loved running up to the animals to tell them, "Hello!" Thank goodness they tolerated it, but I can only imagine what they were thinking.

Will liked to read books to Gus
