A forgotten family member

Meet *"turtle", our family memeber since 1999..



my dad got it for my nephew o my nephew hab feeh habbah kil ma zarna ga3ad wiyah outside for hours, laman mal oo he forgot all about it!

oo it continued to be the interest of each nephew or niece until they reach the age of 2-3 years when they loose interest in the poor thing!

to be honest, i also forget that we have a turtle o i remember it when one of the kids reach that certain age .. and that is whats happening right now.. the youngest edition to the family ( allah e7afith'hum ) 9ayer hammah il awal wil a5eer il turtle!

if i want to let him come to me or give me a hug i'll just tell him that i'll show him the "totol" (3ala goaltah) oo he'll come! .. hehehe, the things he'll do for a turtle!

*by the way, i just realized that it doesn't have a name! 9 years & still no name!

5yrs later we moved... And I found it behind the cupboard... it was a nasty site... :(
