Aww… that reminds me of Sid and Ian, my short-lived hermit crabs from college. One of them died because I was a negligent owner and didn’t keep their cage very clean. The other one died Christmas of… well, now I can’t remember the year. It was very cold, and my car didn’t have heat while we were driving down to Texas. ’89 maybe?
We just read the Eric Carle book about the hermit crab needing a new shell. It’s become one of my new favs. There are some great life lessons in that book.

Yup, ’89. We all three almost died of freezing on that trip, but you and I survived. It still provides me with great stories for sharing…

I love that book! We read it right after we watched the video at school. Eric Carle is fantastic!
