Our new addition

Kirsti would like everyone to meet Hersey. He is Kirsti's new pride and joy. She has been working very hard for the past couple of weeks on getting allowance. She has been doing extra chores also to save enough money to get a guinea pig. To make a long story short on how this all came about, she watched a Disney show about a monkey that a little girl stumbles upon and he is funny and does all kinds of tricks. Well she wanted a monkey. I told her they cost at least a $1000.00. She said she would save her money and get one. I said ok knowing what little girl could do that and not get interested in something else before she reached that kind of money. Plus we told her they are dirty and like to fling poo. As a little time went on she decided she wanted a guinea pig and new it was much cheaper. We said ok but she had to buy it on her own and show responsibility and do research. Hoping this would buy us a little time. Well our mistake was we went to a pet store to do some research and they had a pig in there that was 1yr old and had all his accessories. He was less than half the price of a baby with accessories. She held him and the rest is history. He is very sweet and she is doing very well with him. She is also learning about oweing money. She paid for about 1/2 and now is working off the rest.
