Well today was Pet day at the twins school and I was slotted last in line by choice after the other parents.
The other pets were shown. The bunny came out and it was very cute and the kids thought it sweet. Same with the fish, and the dog and the cat.
How sweet, so cute. I have one of those ect ect was the common line around the class.
Then Faith and Eden stood up and out came the T's.
Gasps, awe widened eyes, murmurs and lines like WOW! Thats So Cool!
Were heard around the class.
Faith handled her A. Avic Razzle and her A. Versicolor Xenix and let them walk hand to hand while she told her class mates about feeding and watering and how they make web castles.
Eden held her Rosie Sunshine and her beasty boy B. emilia Zevo, and hand to hand they walked while Eden told about how they make web carpets on the ground to tell them when something is close and the differents between "Boy arms and girl arm" given Zevo has his boxed off palps and Sunshine has her smooth tappered girly palps.
Both girls acted as if they had been doing this twenty years and I was SO Proud.
One of the parents. One of the few not pasted to the back wall trying to be as far away as possable. Came up and asked if she could try holding Zevo.
Eden told her. "Ok, but you have to be Really calm and gentle so you don;t scare him and sit down cause he's a testal( twin speak for terestrial) and if he falls it could kill him Bad."
So I helped hold the parents hand, she was shaking like a leaf but Zevo strolled onto her hand from Eden's as pretty as you please and started of course up her arm. Eden took her other hand and showed her where to put it so Zevo could walk on it, keeping him from venturing further up the lady's arm.
After a few seconds the woman, wide eyed and giggly exclaimed it was So Cool! And felt kinda nice, like getting a little mini message.
The teacher. Not to be outdone, pried herself from the corner where she had stuffed herself and said. "Alriht. I have to try this, just once. If I let you go and I don't I'll always wonder."
I sware I thought all her bones would soon shake down in her feet when I took her hand. (To keep her from flipping Zevo into the air in fear Just in case, or intervien if he decided to take off skittish)
She held her breath and Eden put her hand out and Zevo took his walk about up her arm. She put her other hand up to let him stroll hand over hand with Eden's help and though she never stopped shaking. She did start breathing again and started to notice his beautiful colors and how interesting he was.
She and the other parent also held Razzle and Xeni and Sunshine for a few seconds.
Both were Massivly proud of themselves.
The kids all cheered them.
Most of them are going home to tell mom and dad "I Want a Tarantula!"
And the teacher wants to talk about how to set a tank up in the class to have one there as class mascott.
The mom who decided to beat out her fear and hold one was on her way to pick out a rosie from the shop i told her to go too.
With a paper tucked in her purse with This site adress.
The twins are now the coolest kids in the world.
And our bugs are back home munching crickets and oblivious to the fact that they were such great embasadors of the T world and changed several views today from negative to possative.
And I am a very very Very proud mommy.
