Poor Little Ted

Yesterday I had an awesome day at school. We had high fives all round.
I decided just to have fun with the kids in the afternoon, so they helped me colour for some displays for the classroom and we listened to music, then read stories.

I got home and went to check my gorgeous curious mouse Ted. He was sleeping in between his food bowl and water, not snuggled up in his nest. So I took him out to check him and gave him some food. He nibbled on some food and seemed ok so I put him back into his nest.

He climbed out of his nest and started walking into the other things in his cage and fell over. He tried to right himself, so I picked  him up and held him in my hand. He kicked his little leg out, then stopped moving.

We don't know what happened. He was his normal crazy self last night and was running up and down Nicks arms. We've been very busy and hardly home this week, with parent teacher interviews I've spent a lot of time at school. Maybe there were signs I didn't see because I was too busy?

Now I have to tell the kids that Ted died. He spent a lot of time at school with them.
