No Such Luck

Our Froggy Friend is no more. I tried so hard to get him to eat, but he just wouldn't. I even cut some of the crickets in half to see if he would eat them that way. Nope. He's gone.

Another one bites the dust.

It's strange that I feel so mournful over a silly little frog. But, it gets me to thinking─if I feel this little bit of sadness over him, how much more does our Heavenly Father mourn for one of us when we die spiritually? How does he mourn when one of us is in pain? He must love us so much! I know He does.

Part of my pain is knowing that the children will be sad. We tried so hard and waited for so long.

So, now comes the next quandry─should I let the kids buy a bigger frog?
