Froggies

I had the delightful opportunity to join Ellea in science class yesterday as they began to dissect frogs!  I know, I know, you're gnashing your teeth in jealousy.....  Or are you gnashing your teeth in disgust?

Here he is in all his glory.  Doesn't he look like he's about to jump away?  Did you know for only $10 you could have one of these specimens for your very own?  Christmas gift perhaps?  Maybe for the Poxleitner gift exchange.....

I was so proud of Ellea.  Of course, she was the tiniest bit grossed out, but mostly she just jumped right in.  Her teacher gave her a hard time because they dissected cow eyes last year and she was completely disgusted with the whole thing.  This year she asked the teacher if they could take out a frog eyeball!

It's trickier to remove a frog eye than one would imagine, but they did it.

Now, be good boys and girls and maybe Santa will bring you your very own frog.  Or, maybe that's what bad boys and girls get.
