Eric brought a snake home from the school yard when he was about 9 or 10. I was out front working in the yard when I seen him walking down the sidewalk, holding his arm as high as he could. He had a hold of a big black snake! It was longer than Eric was tall. The snake had bit Eric’s finger so he had blood running down his arm. He didn’t care. He had a huge grin on his face. He had a new pet! There ain’t nothing more exciting than that! We found a box and put a wire lid on it. It sat out on the front porch. He put water and grass in the box and caught a few bugs for it to eat. The next morning the snake was gone. I knew it would be…. that was my strategy. After all… I am a Mother…. and I collected plenty of my own critters when I was a kid.
