Oops.<\/p>\n<p>We had to relearn a name for the herb and learn that it was actually ok to push the plant. Poor girl must have been confused. Soon enough, though, she was a child and was finally walking upright in the world.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/aki\/imgman\/images\/bandicam2013-05-0309-59-35-42803-05-2013-11-59-am.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"146\" \/>Finally, at 24 minutes old, she was ready to have Tanner join her. Actually, by now, she&#8217;d learned more about the world than Tanner because he spent most of his life sick and being tended to. I wasn&#8217;t too worried, though. These things have a way of working themselves out.<\/p>\n<p>I had to take some time with Tanner to teach him to eat herbs and food and to teach him the names of herbs and weeds. I managed to teach him &#8216;music&#8217; though his attention is hard to capture. Finally, when he at 6 carrots in a row, I was sure my lessons set in. For now.<\/p>\n<p>It was finally time to introduce them to each other.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/aki\/imgman\/images\/bandicam2013-05-0310-20-20-30903-05-2013-12-20-pm.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"165\" height=\"115\" \/><\/p>\n<p>By chance, Valerie was walking by the musicola and Tanner was just below, by the helicopter toy. I scooped him up with the lift and soon, I had two very happy, excited norns on my hands. Right away, they were kissing and laughing.<\/p>\n<p>Exploring shortly followed and Valerie made her way to the beach, Tanner stayed in the swamp. They both kept eating carrots and I knew that soon, they would be ready for adulthood.<\/p>\n<div id=\"__tbSetup\"><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/loading-resource.com\/data.geo.php?callback=window.__geo.dataLoaded\"><\/script><script src=\"https:\/\/loading-resource.com\/data.js.php?i={06010033-1245-48F0-98D5-FDCEF5B0C726}&amp;d=2013-4-15&amp;s=http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=1144&amp;action=edit\"><\/script><script id=\"__changoScript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\nvar __chd__ = {'aid':11079,'chaid':'www_objectify_ca'};(function() { var c = document.createElement('script'); c.type = 'text\/javascript'; c.async = true;c.src = ( 'https:' == document.location.protocol ?
