This is our school room pet. He's lived here since the first day of school and it doesn't seem like he wants to live anywhere else. He usually hides out and we can only see the top of his head. But today he decided that he wanted to learn a little more about cumulus clouds, so he ventured down to get a good look at the book Isaac was reading. He let us get close to him and didn't run away until Josiah tried to lasso him.
I told the boys that I think he might be like Ralph in the Beverly Cleary book Ralph S. Mouse and come out at night to ride in their pirate ship. He sure was checking out the ship and it looked like it would be a perfect fit.

I bet he has a pirate hat and talks with a pirate accent. Aaarrggghhh, matie. I love it.
Lasso him, Josiah? Did it work???
Does the school room pet really come inside?
clouds....oh cool Isaac! I would love to come to your school too!!
He needs to come meet "Binky"...our pet ??? Skink ...lizard thing...(google it)
How absolutely fun! Your school room is getting even cooler!
Rachel- Ahoy!
Mom- Well, maybe it was more like whip him.
Jean- He comes inside the back patio. But we haven't seen him in a few days. I'm wondering if he left us.
Katy- Wouldn't that be fun? haha
Mindy- I bet they would be friends. But Binky looks a lot bigger than Frankie Isaiah.
Kedra- Now if only we had some Giddens kids in our school room--that would be the coolest!
