Today marks the passing of Rylee's first pet gerbil, Rascal.
She received him as a Christmas gift just two months ago and loved playing with him daily along with Paige and her 2 gerbils. Unfortunately, I was the one that discovered the poor thing. Rylee was sad, cried quietly for a couple of minutes and recovered quickly. Paige, as expected, was devastated. David came home early to take the girls to PetSmart where TWO new gerbils were consequently adopted into our family.
As a quick side note, I am praying with all my heart that Paige's gerbils are immortal. With the all sobbing shown today, I can only imagine what is in store when her gerbils pass away.

I am not at all surprised. Rylee is WAY too rough with those things. She tortured Rascal from day one!
I feel really bad for Paige, though. I know she loves all living things.
