Who knew crabs were so fast?


This one is pretty funny. Imagine this. I was cleaning up the kitchen from the days activities and my husband was on our laptop computer after work perusing his normal message boards. I decided to let our more active hermit crab Abigail out for some exercise. I put her on the carpet by the piano and went about my business. About 10 minutes later I remembered I let her out, (yes, I have a very short attention span). I began searching. Before you know it, my husband and I are both on our hands and knees calling out to this crab. "This is definintely one for your blog!" my husband said as he looked under the couch. I finally put my Native American instincts into action and actually followed some tracks in the carpet which led to our bedroom behind our cedar chest. Whew! That was close. I can't imagine explaining to our daughter how we lost her hermit crab somewhere in the house.
