Our dinner guest

Remember Jerry? A's best little buddy and our favorite toad/frog? Just look at this picture and see how much joy Jerry brings to A.
Just look at cute, slimy, fat Jerry. A loves him and all of his relatives. Once when it rained at night, I think every one of Jerry's friends and relatives were hopping on the road. We kept hearing a thump thump thump under the van and Autumn and I kept screaming every time, which raised questions from the girls, so we had to pretend it was a game so A would not cry herself to sleep!
Well, we were sitting at the dinner table tonight and had just started to eat when A obviously spotted something exciting. When we looked up, we saw that the "thing" she spotted was either Jerry's cousin or baby on our sliding glass door...INSIDE! Yes, this sweet little guy was INSIDE on the glass door. As I jumped and ran to the living room, A got right over to the little guy, stood on the chair, and got him off of the sliding glass door and as she was getting off of the chair, he jumped down. All I could see was one of those funny movies where the frog jumps into every one's food and messes everything up. This frog just jumped on S's foot, then A captured him again and let him go free outside. I, however, stood in the living room until the creature was out of the house....great mother huh? A was SO very proud of herself and SO happy to see one of her favorite little guys again.


Nope, not a dull moment around this house!
