So the other day, while I was out for a walk with nephew #1 and my niece, we were invited to a neighbour's compound to check out their plants and pets.
Nephew #1 is a nature lover so naturally he gravitated to the neighbour's star tortoises. He was excited to take photos of course.
The niece wasn't that excited. Check out the photo...she was a little freaked out! *LOL*
Playing along with Once upon a...sketch and ARTastic challenge.
P/s: Happy weekend friends! :)
