This message posted on my brother’s story is just too perfect!
Being a little two-year-old who carried around a green button in his pocket pretending it was real and asking all the neighbors if they wanted to see my pet toto. I have always felt that the turtle was my spirit animal. I’ve been fortunate to have countless real pet turtles in my life.
Today has offered a range of emotions. I spent my last day with my students as after tomorrow, I will be officially retired. It has also been nine years since we said goodbye to my dear dad. As I sat outside enjoying our farm, I couldn’t help but think of Dad. I am positive that he had something to do with sending this beautiful young lady across our driveway just to say, “Hi!” We miss you, Dad! Can you see my pet turtle?
