Myrtle's Father Adopts Another Baby

What A Lovely Day.
Myrtle and I went to the Nature Center to Adopt Myrtle a little Sister.
Myrtle was so excited, She could hardley contain Herself, ( Actually She diden't, She peed all in the Carseat)
All the way to the Adoption center She sang and cooed, kept getting in and out of Her carseat,
Hanging from the rearveiw, as usual. I never saw Her so Happy.
When We arrived, we went down to the Nursery, where all the little Baby Opossums were,
And we both peeked through the glass at all the little babies. There were little ones, Fat ones, Hairy ones, Silver ones, Black ones, Twins, Triplets. etc, etc, etc.
Myrtle was staring real hard at them, And I asked Her which one She liked, Come to find out She wasen't staring at the Babies, She was staring at all the full food bowls.
"The one with the Grapes and Apples She replied".

We looked and looked but just coulden't make up our mind. So I picked up Myrtle and put Her in the Nursery with all the Babies, All of a Sudden one baby climbed up onto Myrtle's back and snuggled into Her fur, We knew right then that She was the one.
Myrtle named her little Sister Sweet-Pea, and a Sweet-Pea She is.
She is very small, about the size of a mouse. Very soon I will post a few pictures of Her on Our Blog here.

A Proud Papa
Sincerely :
Myrtle's Father
