Lizards and Snakes

I was baking muffins the other night and a little friend decided to join me. It was a cute little lizard!! They are so small and this one seems to live in our kitchen. Which is fine because he is so small and cute! I took a picture of him next to my water bottle so you could see just how small he really is!


Then the next morning i went to get something out of the fridge. I heard something move next to it and i saw this tail quickly dissappear under the fridge!! Well of course i wasn't about to do anything, i thought that the house help would take care of it if it was really necessary!! But when i returned home from work i walked in the kitchen and a big lizard was just sitting in the middle of the floor!! but it quickly ran under the fridge once i came in the kitchen!! and then that same night i came to brush my teeth (because of the filtered water) and there was another lizard in the kitchen!! but this one wasn't quite as big as the one under the fridge and he was eating the flies so i left him alone!! I told Tori about it and she said that the big one has been coming and going for some time, and the baby one has actually been there since i came, i just finally got around to taking a picture!
ok, and one last story. only something like this would happen in Africa!! I was talking with Phil after church when his daughter came running and told him that their dog had found a snake in the yard and she needed him to come kill it before someone got bit!! I was just glad it wasn't at my house!!

That little lizard is kind of cute, but I am not sure about the big ones!! I don't think mom would tolerate that very well! Remember that little lizard that Bryce had when we were little and I knocked its tail off?? Glad the snake wasn't in your yard...Are they poisonous?
