Turtle Funeral

We had a little funeral here last week. Our nine-year-old's beloved "Minn" died unexpectedly, and he was one sad boy. So the children and I gathered ourselves for a funeral by the pond. The oldest boy read a eulogy (I had to keep from giggling) and we said our goodbyes.

Minn's sad caretaker...

And Minn's roommate Timmy said goodbye, too...
