Hi guys!!
Today was show & tell at work. If you dont remember I work with people with brain injuries. My clients loved it!!! It was so awesome to see them get so excited. I wish I could post the pics I took, but due to confidentiality concerns, I can not. I brought Sid inside and all of the clients lit up and asked if that was Sid, I said yes it was and they all sat down and waited patiently until I brought him out. Sid was a trooper, he never once got scared and retreated inside his shell. He did poo alot though, about every 2 minutes. I chalk that up to nerves...lol. I took Sid out and showed him to one of our clients, and our client kissed Sid right on the nose, it was sooooo sweet. Another of our clients "tort-sat" for Sid when I needed to find more newspaper (for poo). Sid even ate out of their hands. We sat in a circle and they asked questions about all of the pets that came in to visit them. When it was time to go, they all said "Good-bye" and wished he could stay longer. I brought Sid home and put him back in his home and he hightailed it straight to his hide...lol. He finally came out when I got home from work. He gave me a look, like, if you do that to me again, I'm going to poo all over you....lol. He thinks it was a hard day for him, but I do that everyday!! I rewarded him for his good behavior with a few meal worms.....and now all is forgiven!!!
P.S. My daughter thinks I'm a dork, because I'm telling all of you about her turtles day!...lol.
