The tadpole/frog that I featured not long ago on the blog met its demise…I think. In a matter of hours, its tail was gone. The next morning, I got the kids all ready to take down to the canal to free to the great yonder…but, we couldn’t find it. I guess it jumped out of the bowl. Who knows where it ended it up…or where I may find it eventually. So, when I noticed today that another tadpole was just about tail-less, we wasted no time. Off to St. Peter’s Village we went to the boulders to free it. The kids enjoyed jumping from boulder to boulder and looking for other creatures.

happy thanks father’s day (Ashlyn’s version of the holiday)
I went right back and they gave me some meds. I feel better already. The pain was going away before they even gave the meds but it is still a strong stitch. I am going for a CT

This is the text message I got from Mark this afternoon. A big happy father’s day to him as he spent hours in the ER with kidney stones. Poor guy. At least he had a good weekend–a night without children Friday (friends took all 3 overnight! God bless ’em!), a fancy dinner for just the two of us, sleeping in on Saturday…and then kidney stones today.
Well, despite the crazy day, here’s a big shout out to Mark and my dad. They can enjoy some Father’s day festivities next week when they take a ride in an open cockpit biplane over the beach — my mom’s and my gift to them.
