Animal Lover

Coming from such an animal loving family, it's really no surprise that Gage loves and adores every single animal he comes across. He loves going to the pet store and looking at all the fish, coming home and seeing his fish and feeding his fish, looking at lizards at the pet store, and really enjoys the birds--which mom is not too happy about because she fears birds because they will peck your eyes out!!

He also loves animals he comes across when we are out and about. We pass a home full of cows and bulls pretty much every time we drive anywhere, especially every morning on our way to school. Gage makes sure he waves and says "Hi Cows!!" when we pass. He hears dogs bark and has to look happily surprised in hopes that it may be his beloved dog, Abbie.

The other day, Gage went to go visit his Great Grandmother in Fairview and he quickly noticed the horses across the street from her house and so we had to go see them. Being that his mother is terrified of horses, his dad gets the fun opportunity of going to meet the horse. Gage loved the horse and the horse loved Gage. The horse put his head right over the fence and Gage quickly pet his head and gave him two big kisses. It was sad to have to leave the horse because even mom started to like the horse because it loved Gage so much. Both the horse and Gage hated having to leave each other, but luckily we have two wonderful dogs and two special cats to keep Gage very busy and occupied.

That is great! When summer comes, we will have to get Gage and take him to ride the horses. I bet he would love that!
