Froggie went a-courtin'

"But sweetie, I think we should keep the tadpoles here. If we take them home, they might die." With big round eyes, Zane said, "But what if they LIVE?!?" And so they did. You can view them on our kitchen counter. I telephoned my wildlife consult, and my sister expertly recommended boiled lettuce, and now we have twenty or so fat little tadpoles swimmin' in the water. We had gone down to the river with our sweet friends that have just finished up their assignment in Uganda. What a precious time. We all clung to every minute. The visit also included a presentation with our children dressed up as a hunter, an assassin, a bunny, a butterffly, a queen and a narrator. The keyboard music punctuated the dramatic parts of the skit. Too cute. My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard! No visit is completee without a trip to the doctor, so after a confirmed corneal ulcer for me and dehydration for Van, our friends turned lemons into lemonade and took the children out for pizza and a movie and saved the day. My eyes are still struggling, so Mom is in town to take me to appointments.
