Monumental Day



It was a monumental day: Kade went to the pet store to get his first pet. We went in with the intent to buy goldfish. Goldfish have no maintenance and small quarters, so it seemed the best compromise. In walking around we decided that a goldfish was kind of boring. No offense to the fish, but not really ‘fun’ for our guys-guy. So, he now has two frogs to call his very own!

Adam is trying to convince me to name the frogs Hank and Ledoux. Really? How about naming them something Kaden can say or better yet after something he likes? The whole ride how was screaming in the back, for all he wanted was to hold the frogs. When we got home he kept asking, “off-off” this is the word for on and out. He wanted the frogs out.

We are keeping them on the mantle. At dinner he sat down and pointed to the ‘ush’ (I think this is his word for fish) and pointed down to the table. So, I let all of them celebrate their homecoming over a meal. He was delighted! Of course, we now have to add kissing the frogs bowl two times (once per frog) to the list of other items/things he kisses before heading up for naps and bedtime.
