Ashlyn and her love for lizards!

 Ashlyn loves all critters.  She is not afraid of anything.  She loves to go hunting around the backyard for bugs and lizards and she always is playing with some kind of critter.  She gets so frustrated and will come crying to me that she can not catch a lizard. She had not ever caught one when the little boy next door came out and was holding a lizard on a stick.  Ashlyn got so excited and ran over to see it.  She did not hesitate and wants to hold it.   She goes and gets her critter box and they put the lizard in the box.  She carries that box around with her all afternoon.  It was time to go in and I finally talked her into letting the lizard go but she wants to hold it first.  Daddy takes the lizard out of the box and holds it up to her.  She is so excited.  She picks up the lizard with this huge smile and you can just see from the expression on her face how excited and happy she was to actually be  holding this lizard.  It is so cute!
