"Mom! There is a bee nest in the tree, and I shot it with my bow!"
Sometimes kids do things that make us jump up from our chair.
We wonder if they ever think.
The truth is, they don't always think.
That's why they are under our care, and not making their own way in this world.
Sometimes, when all my little ones are sleeping in their beds,
all I have energy left to to is flop on the couch and read.
The other night, as I was reading on the couch, I got lost in the words I read.
I tuned out all of my worries of my home and little ones.
It felt good. But I was so absorbed, I didn't realize someone had crept up on me.
Someone else still needed my care.
And this time it wasn't one of my own.
This little guy was patiently waiting right in the middle of the living room floor!
He looked up at me at if to say, "Excuse me Ma'am, would you please let me out?
Your darling little messy faced kid brought me in here,
and I can't seem to find the door."
I chuckled to myself, scooped him up, and let him outside.
"Good night little frog. Watch out for little hands come morning time!"
You just never know what you'll find when your home is bubbling with littles!
Thanks for stopping by! :)

Love the frog! I would have probably freaked woken up my sleeping one, and have him let it out. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Amy! I actually used a cup to scoop him up and let him outside. I normally am not squeamish about frogs but something about it being in the house... I just couldn't touch it!
