The Williams Family and an Iguana Named Diego Jennifer Foreman de Grassi Williams

Book number 8 is about our very own pet dragon, an Iguana named Diego. It is funny how animals end up in a household. Sometimes there is a grand scheme and lots of planning, and other times, by luck or chance, an opportunity happens. Iwasn't looking to have an Iguana, though I always admired their very prehistoric good looks. There happened to be anad, in which someone was looking to rehome their very large Iguana, because the husband had his pet banished to thegarage. The man liked his Iguana, and had him since he was 6" long. The now 4 foot lizard intimated his wife. Anyone who knows an Iguana realizes that they can stare at you without blinking an eye. The wife found this unnerving as she never could figure what Diego was really thinking. As a matter of fact, I was sent to the garage to meet Diego by myself, and there he was looking at me from behind his giant glass aquarium. For me, it was instant curiosity, admiration and love. Life with what nature had allowed us to experience in his handsomely primitive beauty, was also witness to how he could weave his innate andinstinctive behaviors, into our lives.
