In search of a prince...

Carolina has always been an animal lover. I am completely confident that she will one day have a job in either the environmental/zoological fields. She loves to be outside and she loves everything from Roley-pollies to earthworms. There is no such thing as to gross to touch, believe me if you have been reading my blog for long you know there is NOTHING to gross to touch in the animal world. If you haven't been keeping up with our blog check out this post to see what I mean. 

So when Lina told us she had found a frog we weren't surprised when she said she wanted to keep it. The frogs around here are tiny and fast so they are pretty hard to get your hands on. Well I guess for anyone except our little reptile whisperer. Carolina actually has a history with frogs. When she was 9 months old we had just moved into our house in GA, I mean really just moved in boxes every where just moved in. Ben had to go out to sea so I decided to take Carolina down to see my Grandmother. I put Carolina in her room with the baby gate up so that I could load the bags in the car. As I was walking back and forth past her room I noticed her chewing on something. At the time she loved to pull the paper tags off of anything and eat them. She was a paper eater to the max!!! I couldn't keep it out of her mouth. So I just assumed that she had found a tag and was eating it, I wasn't concerned. When I went into get her I decided it was time for her to spit it out. So doing like she was told she spit it out right into my hand. Only it wasn't paper... IT WAS FROG JERKY!!!! All we could guess was that when the movers brought the boxes in it must have been stuck to the bottom of one of them! OMG it was so freaking gross. I immediately called the Doctor (who laughed at me) and told me she would be fine. Then I called my mom (who laughed at me) and then told me that it was really gross but that if the doctor said she would be fine she was sure she would be fine. Then she processed to call her froggie for the next two years!

Here she is showing her love for the reptiles once again. I guess you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find Mr. Right. Hopefully we have a decade or two before it works.
