Once upon a time ....
.... there was a little Mouse that found it's way into the Bathtub inside a Home in the Forest. For how long she has been in the Bathtub is not so sure but while she was trying to find a way out she was startled by two shrieks. One came from a little boy who was very excited to see her and the other from the boys Mom who did not expect to see a Mouse first thing in the morning sitting in the homes Bathtub.
As it happens there were two little boys living in this house who declared within minutes that they want to keep her forever and had decided to name her 'Rosabell'. Since the Mommy of this Home was not necessarily afraid of a Mouse, she also did not want to get close enough to get her in a box to set her free. Therefor it was decided between the Mom and her boys that they should make Rosabell comfortable until the arrival of the Dad in the afternoon. So in a short amount of time Newspapers were lining the bottom of the Bathtub and a container with Water and a Cracker was added.
Rosabell life therefor was fairly comfortable for the next few hours. She was a bit on the shy side but got used to being observed, even thought she was not to trustful of those two legged visitors.
The end of her stay in the Bathtub came with the arrival from Dad who was brave and had her in a box for her journey to freedom within minutes of seeing her.
Then the expedition to Rosabell's freedom began. She got an exciting ride on a Four Wheeler to the end of the Mountain, close to a fallen over tree stump. There was a little creek within yards and the decision to set her free was made. It was a sad time for those little boys who truly would have loved to have her live in their Bathtub forever.
However, for now the Mom and Dad's wish is that little Rosabell will have a happy life out in Nature and of course will not seek out the Bathtub or their Home again!
Rosabell set out to seek new adventures and of course she lived Happily Ever After.
The End!

Great story Anke! She looks pretty cute in the box, but I agree she would not look very cute in my bathtub or anywhere in my house!
