Eaglet’s Great-aunt got a bassinet
Eaglet will be moved tomorrow to her third foster home in a month. The term bittersweet is cliché at this point.
To be honest though, Eaglet’s departure is a hundred times easier than Snap’s was. I actually like Eaglet more- she sleeps better, has much more facial expression and is all around more fun. If I had to choose, I would want to keep Eaglet. But I’m ok with her leaving. Maybe it’s because her family stressed me out so much? Maybe it’s because I always knew she would only be temporary due to the need to keep her together with her siblings?
