I really like the frog, she's very cute. I like that she has a bow and long eyelashes. I've had my popping up cat for so long, that I wonder if I could find another one and be okay with it.

Oh madisgram, I love your avatar. I have always loved frogs and have a lot of them around my farm in in my pond.

Cute avatar.

I love frogs as well and your new avatar is precious. I miss the spring and summer when there is a symphony of "peepers" to serenade us in the evenings.

I too adore frogs. Have a tree frog outside my back condo window most summers, probably not the same one but I look forward to his/her coming/return each year. I have a coworker from Brazil who is terrified of frogs--any ideas on curing her? I keep trying.

BTW, what is "Anzuru yori umu ga yasashi" Frog for? I assume it's Frog ...

Roadrunner, who does not personally eat frogs
(but maybe a few of their distant relatives)
Thanks for this!

"Anzuru yori umu ga yasashi", a japanese proverb- vision without action is a daydream. action without vision is a nightmare. attempt is sometimes easier than expected.

I thank you for your frogs. My Mom's mom it was her adopted Mom anyway she loved frogs and it makes me think of her when I see your frogs.

I love my Grandma's and miss them. So anything I can have to bring me closer to them is a good thing.
