We have a little turtle that has been hibernating through the winter and recently he woke up since it’s getting warmer.
When we first got the turtle we asked Kayden what he would like to name it and he wanted to call him turtle…not the most original name. But Kayden really loved the turtle. Together we taught him the responsibility of keeping the tank clean and about feeding the turtle etc. We were also able to learn a lot about the turtles habitat.
Then winter came and the turtle fell asleep. We taught Kayden about hibernation.
Then like I said, the turtle has woken up and Kayden is overjoyed. To be totally honest I totally forgot all about the turtle. The turtle was more like my wife’s and my son’s pet and I never paid much attention to it. Ha. So when Kayden and my wife were so excited that the turtle was stirring I was like, “What? We still have a turtle? It’s not dead?”. But now I need to start focusing more and reminding Kayden about cleaning the tank and feeding the turtle. It has gotten quite big…I think we may need to get a new tank for it soon.
Thank you for always entertaining me with your awesome cartoons and fun stories. Because of it, I nominated you for a Sunshine Award. Check out my blog for details tomorrow.
Turtles hibernate?!? I didn’t know that!?! Great drawings. I love them!
I also was not aware of turtle hibernation. I think you need a “The more you know” banner on this post. Great cartoon btw!
Yes! I also was unaware (or I just really didn’t care) that turtles hibernated until our turtle did. I thought that maybe it died or something, but it would still moved a bit when we would pick it up. So we did some research online, which put our minds at ease since we now knew it wasn’t dead or dying. ha!
you just keep getting better! and Kayden reminded me of, well, me when i was a kid. I got a Hamster and named it Hammy, like most of my other friends who had hamsters
Kids are so creative sometimes
Ha! Glad you liked it. Hearing that I’m getting better is nice to hear from another artist. tx
