I love frogs too!

Frog story--in the early 90's DH and I dug a small decorative pond in our back yard. It took a while to get it finished, but once we got it all tricked out with a little waterfall, our own version of a filter (this was pre "pondmania" days!), and a bunch of gold fish, we captured some tadpoles and threw them in. Well, they quickly metamorphosed into full size green frogs, and sang their hearts out every night. Our bedroom was in the front of the house, so we didn't hear the nightly chorus, but our daughter's bedroom was right next to the pond! She complained bitterly about the noise that went on all night long! One day, we heard a tree frog chirping near her room. It was early morning, but the sound was really close to her bed! A tiny tree frong, not 1" long had worked its way into her window casing and was sitting on top of the window pane chirping his brains out! What a surprise to see him inside the room! I could then see why she was complaining!

Did you know that frogs are fast disappearing in the wild, and some day we won't have them? Cherish them while they are still here for us to admire and listen to!

And they are so cute on quilts!
