The Scary Frog!

The other day when we came back from a late evening of errand running, Mike and Josh went to turn the sprinklers in the front yard on and out jumped 2 frogs... Josh was terrified and asked a million questions about them that evening such as, "are frogs dirty?" and "why are they in our front yard?". We just answered the questions trying not to scare him about them, but the frogs were obviously on his mind a lot during the next few days especially in the evening when it would start to get dark. Yesterday, Mike and Josh were running around the back yard grass at dusk and all of a sudden Josh tripped and out jumped a dark object from right under him! It was a frog... Poor Joshie was spooked beyond belief and all he wanted to do was wash his hands and go inside. We convinced him that the frog was not going to do him any harm and would eat the bugs that might eat our garden, so he finally came and sat with us on the back patio. We saw our dog chasing something in the rocks, so Mike and Josh went on a hunt to find the frog... we were able to get a picture, which helped Josh really see what it looked like (since really all he had seen was a dark mass jumping around scaring him). He tells us he wants to catch the frog and hold it next time he sees it!
