The box


Early July11007, originally uploaded by Chiara and James Hemsley.

You know how kids love to play in boxes? We set this one up right next to Luca's cage (uh....blanket on the grass.....) and he wouldn't go into it. That is, until James started throwing sticks into it to lure him in farther and farther. I swear, sometimes we treat Luca like an animal. I shake "puffs" containers to get him all excited for snacks, I tell him to "come here" a lot, and now we are throwing sticks for him to retrieve.....is there something wrong with that?
