It's Raining Frogs...

Colleen has found a new obsession...FROGS!  The first few frogs she caught she named "Boueyhead" and "Boueyhead 2" however now they are all named Froggie, not as cute but sometimes she does bring inside the not so cute TOADS.  I much prefer the cute little green tree frogs, but we get to be entertained with the stories of whichever frog she manages to find on the front porch each night.  

So, what does she do with these frogs?  She plays "froggie games" such as Hop Jump where the object of the game is to "step on a marble and balance a frog on your head" which is obviously the frogs FAVORITE game. 

Don't confuse the frog jumping away with the frog trying to get away...nope - the frog jumps away because the frog also LOVES to jump - DUH - and it is OK to let the frog jump because Colleen says she is very good at catching them.  

I came home the other night with pizza and Colleen was standing on a kitchen chair washing something in the sink...

"Colleen, what are you doing?"
"I'm washing the dead frog I found under your chair, and it didn't even pee on me!"

Nope - this frog obsession is not limited by living frogs, Colleen is perfectly fine with petrified frogs as well.
