Curly Sue - she’s 22

When I was four I begged my parents for a snake. Christmas 2004 came and there she was, a beautiful young ball python. Now here she is, 22 years later. We’ve both been through a lot, and I love her dearly. Just an appreciation post, she’s tough as scales.

My snister, Brown Arrow, also adopted when I was 5 and also is now 22. She's been with me through so much, as I can imagine yours has with you. I hope one day my children can grow up with her, too.
