My prince charming is a bullfrog named Prince Hoppy

My coworker Mara and I went out rock hunting yesterday after we had lunch at the resturant. We went down to a creek to get some nice smooth rocks so the kids could paint it for letter "R" week. We had to move farther down the creek and Mara hopped over the water to a rock bank and was getting some rocks while I stood there a bit hesitant not wanting to fall in or slip... Plus I had to use the bathroom really bad and in order for me to keep my mind off of that (babbling creek didn't help one bit either), I started to explore.

I was sad I didn't bring my camera along, cuz we weren't really planning to be out there anyways... Just then I spotted him. He was all snug on a tree stump with ferns growing around.. he looked so majestic. I showed him to Mara and decided we were gonna come home and grab the camera. We also stopped by to grab Mara's daughter Morgyn from the church and grabbed the camera and came back to the location. We were gone for a good hour and the froggie was still in the same spot.

I was getting ready to take pic when I noticed the camera wouldn't turn on... Well, I forgot to check the battery, it was in there, it was recharging at home! UGH. I checked for the memory card and not the battery. Sooo... we decided to frognap the dude and named him Prince Hoppy. We have at the daycare for the kids to see... We gonna take him back in a few days so he doesn't have a heart attack cuz of the kids... He won't quit staring at us... so creepy.

Mara went and got some live crickets for him.. and he wasn't too hungry. I went over to check on him.. and saw a tiny cricket outside of the habitat.. He saw me and went right back inside the hole he came from. HAHA. That was funny. Now all the kids are saying I'm gonna kiss the frog so I can get a prince charming. First it was the cow, and now the frog!
