This is such a cute write! Somehow I hate to see snails as they always eat up my orchid buds and flowers!

Hahahahahahaha... That was cute. Reminds me of the verses penned below those extraordinary Golden Books for Mothers to read to their children and show them the colorful and happy pictures decorating it.

Cool! I used to collect snail families when I was very small. Spoiled their family outings permanently.
