For yesterday, I’m giving thanks for my hamsters! They are just as much loves of my life, as are my daughters. Growing up, my family always had pets. We had multiple dogs. We had eight cats at one point in time. It just feels normal for me to have background noise from animals.

Last night, as I winded down for bed, I listened to my boys running on their exercise wheel. Boa was jumping from the wheel, around the cage, up the stairs, and onto the swing. I absolutely love watching them.

This morning, I had them in their clear balls. Boa was doing great! Dexter somehow got the lid open. As soon as he heard his cage door rattle, he came running towards it. I was so relieved!!!

I’m grateful for these adorable little creatures.
