Hi,

My name is Laurie, I'm a 44 year old grandmother of 3. I'm very hands on and my grandchildren spend at least a little while with me daily studying, enjoying, and caring for the various pets. My oldest grandson (9) graduated to his own snake a few weeks ago. My youngest granddaughter (4) got her own baby scorpion a week ago from one of my own mothers. All 3 children also have hermit crabs, the boys also have a trapdoor spider each. (My granddaughter had asked for one also and 3 were ordered, but when she saw how vicious they can be, she begged me for one of the baby scorpions). They do not interact with any of their pets w/o adult supervision, usually mine. I'm not your average grandma.
I do enjoy cooking, baking, gardening, cake decorating also. But with all the pets I have (see profile), animals take up the majority of my day.
I LOVE talking about my pets and others'.
