The Hamster Funeral

Drew went back to school this morning, for the first time since Wednesday.  We just tried the morning and it went well may try a little but longer tomorrow.  So now he is home with me and planning the funeral for Scruffy, the hamster.  He even found a scripture he wants to read at it ( the scripture is from the Lord's words to Adam and Eve after they ate the forbidden fruit)

Genesis 3:19 
       "...you will eat your food 
       until you return to the ground, 
       since from it you were taken; 
       for dust you are 
       and to dust you will return."


 I think it is great he spent time searching for the scripture he wanted to read for him.  

The hole is now dug in the ground, thanks to Daddy. Drew and Scott chose a spot underneath a tree since Scruffy always liked to be hiding underneath things.  :) We will have the Funeral after we get the other boys home from school.  Drew plans on making a cement tile with Scruffy's name written in it to put over the spot where we bury him.  Sweet thoughts....
