Ode To A Toad

It is with our sadest regrets that we inform you that our beloved Mr. Toad died.

He was a really cool tadpole.
He blessed us with new knowledge of just how crazy it is to mutate from tadpole to frog.
He taught us what it was like to face our fears and feed him endless amounts of live crickets.
He provided us with a smelly, moldy tank and lots of excitement as we watched him sit there.
He made my day the one and only time he croaked.
He proved how tough he was each and every time he was dropped behind the dresser, or survived without food for days on end.
He put up with us and added some entertainment to our home.
We will miss him, but I doubt he will miss us.
Goodbye Mr. Toad. It has been a pleasure.

Bye Bye Toad. We missed you guys today with all the family gathering, but are excited that you will be here soon. Unfortunately we may not get to see you because we are leaving to nauvoo on Friday. Wish we could be to the reunion on Friday.
