Introducing Mr. Mouse

We have a mouse in our house, but he's the kind you want to keep.  His name is Mr. Mouse, and he has a long and storied history with us.   Someday I will tell you some of his background--it's rather strange, and it involves Martha Stewart.

He is a bit spoiled.  Here he is waiting for tea to be served...


He also has a nicer bed than most regular mice.  
Ada made him a quilt
and I helped make him a futon.
 
 This is the only photo I could get before he got angry that I had disturbed his sleep. (He can be difficult!)


We think that lately Mr. Mouse has been lonely, so we are thinking perhaps he needs to meet a friend, or maybe even a wife.

  1. I love you!!! We have a disapproving bunny and a Beaver without a name who live in our house. They both have long and involved narratives.

    I cannot wait to learn more about Mr. Mouse.

  2. Have you read The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo? About a china rabbit. Mr. Mouse would quite enjoy. :)

  3. Oh beautiful!! So very sweet. We have a shy elephant named Ollie and a very outgoing 'creature' named Wilson in our house.
