Reptile man





I took the morning off work today to visit Jillian's daycare for a special day. Steve of Creature Feature was bringing his snakes and lizards for the kids to see. As you can see Jillian was really excited. Steve started off bringing out the dangerous creatures which included a king cobra, a gabon viper and a diamond back rattle snake. Although they all had their venom sacks removed, they still had their teeth and made me a little more than nervous; especially since the kids were a max of 15ft away. I made sure that Jillian had other kids in front of her. After the big boys were put away, he brought out the "touchable" reptiles. As you can see, Jillian showed no fear and touched every creature she could. For those who are wondering, Jilian does know that if you see a snake in the wild you should stay away. I hope this post didn't creep out Grandma R. too much.

OMG! I surely would have died just being in the room. I'm sure I would have grabed Jillian and made a run for it. Rest assured Jillian WILL NOT pick up any snakes while out in the "country" with Grandma R.
Now I have to live and sleep with those images, especially of the one wraped around her neck.
