I never know what to expect when Zack comes home from work with a box. Last Friday night he got home before the boys and I did and I didn’t even notice the box sitting on the end table. It wasn’t until I walked past the end table for the 4th time that night and I thought I heard something. Usually if I think I hear a sound I don’t investigate because the tv is on. Since the tv was off, I stopped and looked around. I’ll admit I was startled with what I saw.
It definitely could have been worse! One time I walked into the house and found a snake sitting in a Tupperware container in front of the tv. I’ll definitely take a Box Turtle in a box any day! Usually he tells me when he is bringing an animal or insect home for the boys. I guess when he got to Work that morning he saw the little guy in the parking lot so he saved him from getting ran over and brought him home to show the boys.
I took pictures for a few minutes of him in one of my planters and then we put him in the grass. Within minutes he was under the fence and gone.
