I guess so...she eventually "found" her baby again, after she was healed, but what a burden! You'd think she'd choose a pebble or something. For all three, I couldn't believe they were doing/carrying what I saw, so I'm glad I got the pics. I've actually seen one or two of my other villagers "relaxing" while carrying their pet rock all over the place, but didn't yet know how to do screen captures. It's always something new with this game! I LOVE IT!
