In other news:

Hollis pet a toad tonight during our nightly walk around the block.

It was fucking glorious.

And I caught it and held it for him. Toad pee be damned, I was gonna show how brave I am. I've never loved an amphibian so much as I do right now...

Thank you, Friend Toad. I appreciate your patience and understanding.

  2. Had no idea how much frogs pee when they get nervous. Carried two baby frogs for a mile for my kids...my hands were drenched. Disgusting! But the little guys were so cute...we couldn't resist! Holly at lifelaughlatte

  4. Fabulous! I'm sure Hollis was VERY impressed. As for me, I'm a little jealous. We have lots of squirrels, but no toads to speak of. And toads? Way, way cooler than squirrels in my book.
