Frogs

For those of you who know me real well you know about me fear of frogs? Why you ask well it is like this: they jump, some have suctions on their feet, they look slimmy. When we first moved up here I really hadn't seen that many of them, well now that has changed they are everywhere even on my dumb laptop. But first I have to tell you that last summer when we went to family camp there were dumb frogs all around for example we have movie night at camp then we have ice cream. Now let me set up the scene for you. There is around 150 people there and the camp leaders will make us 3 different meals. So while we were in line here comes this child right beside me with a cup in his hand (I didn't know him). His mom asked what was in there and as he uncovered the cup there was about 10 to 15 baby frogs. I was gone I was no longer hungry. Then the night we had the ice cream social I was sitting and talking with Shannon. Camille came over to us and I don't remember why or what but I rung out her socks or something like that. I have no idea who or how many people were there but I heard Shannon say oh buddy you really need to take that off the table do you know what it was yes a dumb frog. Well I was to my feet faster then you could say another word, but since I had put water on the floor I kept slipping. So this little boy says I'll just put it in my pocket and he did. By now I had all I could do not to scream and not start to cry because I sure could of. That dumb little frog stayed in the pocket but I found a different table to sit at. Then Shannon got us started on letter boxing last summer and we had fun doing it, but I don't enjoy going to frog areas. Then this past Christmas Vicki had my name and she decided to put a fake frog into a box with a spring so when I took the lid off the dumb thing came out. They all had fun with that. Yesterday I was going to help Shannon watch her kids she babysits for so she could go to an appointment so I went to my hotmail to see what time she was going to be here and there was an email from John Ball the zoo here and it said look what is new so I did well I am so glad that I still have my laptop once I opened it up popped a black and yellow frog. Believe me I could care less from now on what is new at the zoo!!!! Then after all that and my heart was back in my chest I went and read Courtney's blog and she had blogged just for me with a frog song she found. I laughed so hard and I showed it to Jared later on and I didn't think he was ever going to stop laughing. So thank-you Courtney for the good laugh it did feel really good to laugh I do agree laughter is the best medicine. But just wait I might have to get you back.
