Our Rebellious Teen

(Photo above:  Krull getting his books out of his locker at school)

Meet Krull, the Warrior King, who came from Florida to live with us last Christmas when my oldest thought it would be a great thing to save him from a house where he was largely ignored. Oldest kid's idea of rescuing this bearded dragon was to stuff Krull in the car with the rest of my son's college dude friends crossing the country from Florida to Colorado. When my son arrived here, he cleverly disguised Krull as his sisters' Christmas gift. Those kids do the darndest things. Sigh. 

Krull is adjusting well to being a Colorado lizard, although like other teens, he sometimes succumbs to peer pressure. Like yesterday, when the family was out for an extended period of time,and we returned to find Krull with this new do:

Gave me have a great laugh this morning both your photos and words. How long is he ? Cant be sure I could cope with him stalking around my home with our two cats?? Await a series of wild life (alright domesticated life)sketches in your forthcoming posts, with or without hairdo.

Dearest Bellarose,

Yes, your baby is the b-o-m-b.

Dear Joan,

Krull is probably about a foot long from tip of the nose to end of the body, with another eight inches of tail.

Can't imagine what the cats would think... When I had my precious kitties, one would state menacingly at our birds in their cages, while the other was terrified. One of the birds picked up on the fact that he was scared and would DIVE BOMB him at every chance. Terribly funny to see an enormous orange tabby being chased by a tiny lovebird!

Poor guy. He looks too funny in that hairdo.

Dear Anna,

If only you could see him in the Barbie clothes the girls put on him...
