The Frozen Frog

My three sons are always bringing home some disgusting bug, worm, dead fish, or in this case, a huge frog.

My oldest son, the tenderhearted 8 yr old, wanted to let it go. My demon 5 year old wanted to dissect it to find out what it had in it's insides. That sounded like a fun adventure so my two eldest sons stuck the frog into a Tupperware container and stuck it in the freezer.

Boy was I surprised when I was looking for something for dinner! Well anyway, the frog sat motionless in our freezer for weeks until one day my 3 year old son came up very excited stating "Mommy, Mommy, today is the day we are going to digest the frog!"
