Normally I myself would never have stood for such a thing. I have learned that as a homeschooling family there are many things that will change in our lives. What I was afraid of before has now become a curiosity. I do things that I never thought I would do. Are you ready?
Keep going..........
Scared? hehehe
Well here it is!
Yes. This nasty little guy was in my pantry. Why is it alive you ask? Well, because of the 2 faces that keep peering into the critter box. We discovered we had an invader since yesterday. As Dad and I were discussing how to get rid of it, our daughter was appalled that we would set regular mouse traps out. So we decided to set the sticky kind out. Did it get caught there? No! Believe me, I sure am glad about that. The next morning our cat Dora found it and was playing a game of catch and release with it. Daughter nonchalantly turned to me and said, "So he came out?" I looked to see what she was talking about and ran across the room the other way screaming. hehehe After I regained my composer, I grabbed a large empty coffee can and chased it around trying to catch it. It took 20 minutes. 
While we were practicing our writing, the kids kept taking turns peaking into the coffee can. I was afraid it would jump out. So i looked for our old critter box, cleaned it up and filled it with some guinea pig bedding we have. NO! We are not planning on keeping it. No matter how cute the kids think he is. It is for observation ONLY . I don't care how much they cry. hehehe

I am laughing hyserically over here. Although we have observed almost every animal and slithering thing that crosses our path I put my foot down on those stinky things. Who knows, I might do it. Never say never, right? hehehe Way to go you homeschool mom you.
By the way, the image of you running off screaming is what has me laughing. hehehe
