As is my daily habit, I came into the computer room this morning to check my email and peeked into the Planet Frog to see what was going on. I noticed that the frog was spread out in the water and looking pale. I reached in to see if he would move when I touched him. He didn't. He's dead. The kids are terribly disappointed, but what can I do? I think he somehow drowned. I don't understand that, though, since he had plenty of landing space to jump up out of the water. What a sad thing.
On the upside, we still have a tadpole that's just getting his legs. Perhaps he'll be a bit more of a fighter. He's already survived one frightful event.
Ethan made Speedo (as they named him when he was a tadpole) a small memorial.
