SNAILS

Dear Weeb,

You are fascinated by the snails that litter the pathway to school. I'm not sure where they go during the day and I'm not certain why they like the rain so much and I have absolutely NO idea what makes them different from slugs, other than they have shells. But you are fascinated, so I guess we'll have to figure it out.

A few days after we took these photos, it rained again and there were TINY snails everywhere. Snail babies? Do snails have babies? I guess they do. It's funny how few get stepped on in our townhouse complex. I guess nobody can bring themselves to stomp on one of these pretty little shells on purpose. When you see a crushed shell it makes you really sad.
