Ode to Sammy 2006-08

We said goodbye this week to Sophia's hamster, Sam. He lived a long full life (for a rodent). Gifted to Sophia on her 10th birthday, Sam was showing his age in recent months -losing his hair (I didn't know hamsters could do that), and generally slowing down. Some would say that Sam was more than a hamster, that he was a . . . uh . . . well . . . he was a Jamaican hamster. But he was fine Jamaican hamster and he will be missed. Goodbye, Sam.

I am sorry to hear about your pet. I know how attached my kids are to their animals.
My husband and I belong to Oasis AG in Princeton, IN. Mike Marsh is our Pastor. We are planning a trip to come and see you. We are so excited. Last year my husband and I went to an Orphanage in Haiti and I fell in love with the kids. Hope to see you soon!! God Bless!!
