First a bit of background. Back in early April, I found this amazing little Mohave baby on Fauna. I wanted him so badly, but a combination of no money and no room conspired against me, and so I reluctantly admitted defeat and tried my best to forget about him. It didn't work. I knew that a baby that stunning would not be available for long, and indeed, I didn't see another ad for him.

I continually looked at other Mojave babies, but none were as remarkable as he, and so I just kept looking.

Fast forward a month or so. An ad goes up on Fauna from the same person who had that Mojave. So I opened it up, and lo and behold, that same baby was posted right there. I couldn't believe it, not that baby, he was just too amazing not to have sold. But I emailed, and sure enough it was the same baby!

Well, I had since sold one of my balls, and so I had room, but still no money. I was grumping about it good naturedly to my 19-year old son that night while picking him up from work. And to my shock he says, "So I'll get him for you." I thought he was joking. But when he asked me the next day if I had bought him and I said no, he said, " Mom, it's almost Mother's Day, and I know how much you want that baby. Buy him." I argued for a while, but by then the whole family was at me to get him, so I decided if they all felt that way, I was going to get him!

He was paid for in short order, and arrived at 9:48 am this morning. He without further ado, here is little Okoto!
