While cleaning up (at our house) and getting ready for a Christmas party (not at our house), I came into the girls’ room to discover two Christmas beasts crawling around this afternoon. According to my firstborn (dark pink), they’re caterpillars. According to my secondborn (light pink), they’re naked mole rats.
There are lots of animals mentioned in Christmas carols and songs, but I’ve never heard of either of those making an appearance …
Happy holidays!

Ah yes, naked mole rats. Someone must have watched Fast, Cheap & Out of Control, recently. Or if not, they should.
too cute! those are cutest little naked mole raterpillars I’ve ever seen. 🙂
I’m sure that there were mole rats and pink caterpillars in the original manger!
You better start making a christmas song with those creatures …
