Friday Fun: More Silly Stuff

Happy Friday!  Here are a few laughs for you as you wind up another work week.

Anna: "I'll be like a giant someday and eat all the stuff you guys have. I'll grow and grow bigger and bigger and taller until I'm like a giant!"  All righty then.

My nephew:  "Boy praying mantises bite the girl praying mantises all over their bodies to give them bronchitis. Bronchitis makes their brains go funny, then the girl praying mantises forget to bite the heads off of the boys."

"Cough, cough"

Master Frog Catcher!

My nephew Mason has found a new hobby:  frog catching!  When I was a kid, maybe 3 or 4 years old, I enjoyed trying to catch frogs too, but my efforts weren't nearly as sophisticated.  They consisted of crouching in my backyard with my dad and seeing if we could fool one into hopping into our hands.  The one time this happened, it peed on us! Then it made a hasty exit. I believe that was the end of my frog catching career.

Mason, however, is 7.  He's got a handy net to help him out.  He trolls a pond near his house for giant frogs, which he apparently catches like a pro, and then releases them.

Biggest frog catch ever!

I can't wait to find out what interesting adventures Anna will have when she's a little bigger! What cool hobbies do your kids have?
