The girl and the frog

[Jim Becker]

Some of you may remember that we have a frog named...Frogalina...that has been with us for three years now. She lives in our pond and presumably helps keep the nasty flying critters at bay. This morning, Frogalina was enjoying a romp out of the pond and Alesya joined in the fun. This creature was remarkably patient with a squirmy girl-child nearby, although she eventually did leap back into the pond with a big splash...

Jim,
Are you sure the frog is a she and not a he :rolleyes: . Tell your daughter to kiss the frog and see if it turns into a prince..:D

[Jim Becker]

Yea, Don. It's a green frog (http://www.enature.com/fieldguides/detail.asp?recnum=AR0027) and as best as we could determine, female. For a nocturnal creature, she sure loves her sunbathing!

Jim, are you sure the frog is a she and not a he :rolleyes: . Tell your daughter to kiss the frog and see if it turns into a prince..:DBut if he's right, it'll turn into Rosie O'Donnell.

(Sorry, way too good a setup line to let pass.:p )

That's cool. :D :D

Dunno if it will work, but we're gonna try and get some tadpoles from a local pond/lake. Might as well try while the fish are small and can't eat em.

Reading the thread title, I thought you had tought your daughter to adjust hand planes. . . I couldn't figure out why you had put in the O/T forum. Ah Huh, now I understand. Lars
