Gecko Memories

These geckos make too many memories where I know almost all of them. Like the time when they fight for food and they both got a time out. When I gave them food to eat and then my first gecko, Lisa stole her food, and Sunnie bit her, and Lisa's head was in her mouth. So, I had to dump water on Sunnie to let go of her, but that did not work, because Sunnie likes baths. But after 10 minutes, Sunnie let go because she was choking on Lisa’s head. And Lisa looked like she was dead. But she was alive, and I was shocked because she was in Sunnie's head for 10 minutes, and there was a chance she was going to die. But she was fine. Just minus how dizzy she was.

I remember when Sunnie leaped off my shoulder into the solid ground. Don't ask me why she did this, even though her body covers her legs. But I guess she thought we were on soft floors, so she just leaped off like there was no tomorrow. But I guess she broke her toe, because she was bleeding. And her bone was sticking out. So, I did a surgery. But then her toe came off, and I screamed, and my gecko was like, freaked out, so I got a band aid. And I cut the band aid to put it on her toe. So then in a few days. I gave Sunnie a bath and then I took off the band aid because she was biting her whole hand. So, when I took off the band aid, it was healed.
