Frogger

When we got back from Thanksgiving this is what was in the mail! A tadpole. Last May Lyla was giving a frog habitat from a preschool friend. It was empty but had a sticker on the side that said free tadpole. I don't know why I did it, but I went to the website and put in our address for the free tadpole (plus $8 shipping!). When I clicked submit a message popped up and said our tadpole would arrive sometime in November. November!? This is May! I completely put it out of my head and completely forgot about it. The habitat was stuffed somewhere out in the garage in a goodwill pile. The tadpole came in a test tube. Lyla didn't see me open it so I asked Eric if we should just flush it rather than show it to her. He thought I was crazy and said, yes, of course we have to show it to her. She was so excited! I didn't take a picture right when we got it. These pictures are from a few weeks later. It was itty bitty when we got it. It was about a 1/4 of an inch long when we got it! So, we filled up the habitat with chlorine free water and went to buy tadpole food. I assumed it would die like goldfish always do. But it hasn't! Here are pictures of "Frogger".
