Well, it's spring here in little small town New Philly, Ohio. The Spring calves are frisking in the fields, new colts are dancing in their meadows. So in the spirit of Spring the Smiths are proud to announce the arrival of a new addition to our family. We are the proud parents of a bouncing baby boy. .. The delivery went smooth as could be expected. He arrived on Saturday morning, weighing in at about 4lbs. He is a beautiful silver, white socks all around, a snow white bib, the face of an angel, all white with a bit of a lite grey mask around each eye. A little pink nose, with a black spot on it, white whiskers on one side, and black whiskers on the other side. At the other end the dark grey tail is tipped by a almost white tip. All offset with a devilish twinkle in his eyes. I wish I could offer a description of the middle part, but it, the middle part won't slow down. This big happy boy won't slow down. He has two speeds, sleep, and running/leaping/hopping/tunnling/attacking. As this boy runs, you can hear his feet thump on the floor. Whew, what a furry bundle of energy. I was able to grab him once, I turned him over looking for a battery pack or a small rocket engine, or at least a on / off switch but nothing but a well padded tummy and fur, a lot of fur. His name is "Bandit" but Mom calls him "Dweezil the evil weezil" must be from his grip on her toes. Needless to say, he is a heart breaker, he is such a wonderful addition to our family. We can't thank his former "ferret mom" enough for choosing us to be his "new parents" we are so blessed to be Bandits new "Mom and Dad". We know his absence will create a big hole in her life, but we promise lots and lots of pictures to let her know how he is doing. If I can find a way to slow him a bit. :-/ We'll soon have some pictures scanned so we can boast some more. Our heart felt condolences to those who have recently lost their ferret kids. There are no words to fill that hole in your heart. The Smiths, and "Baby" Bandit, and the fuzzy six pack ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Why not stop by and visit our web sites: David: http://bones2000.virtualave.net Tonia: http://www.geocities.com/lolaland2000 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ [Posted in FML issue 3060]
