The invasion of the Amphibians
Our rural, breezy pleasant existence has been invaded by small frogs with big eyes. Now I know how Frodo and Samwise Ganges felt when they were tailed by Gollum—that frog-like creature. Our amphibious friends are not as sinister though—actually they are rather cute up to now. When you enter the bathroom you are serenaded by frogs singing “Ribbett-Ribbett!”—A rather watered down version though I must say. J My only fear is that they do not produce tadpoles in the toilet— Oh I’m Aghast—a plague?
I am reminded in James to not give in to the little frogs of sin around us which ends up with a lot of lust that becomes sin. Our defense is found in Romans 8, “If we walk in the Spirit we will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.”
Lately if you were here you would have seen us hard at work. Terri is sewing lacy type curtains and “installing them” as well as putting up knick-knacks, cleaning and preparing yummy meals. Today was BBQ Chicken sandwiches and the Potter’s favorite salad—Terri’s potato salad. I have been transforming a shipping crate into a dog pen, setting up our water filtering system and securing some doors and cleaning up some in the yard.
Well, we are off to Jon’s graduation on Wednesday at 2:00 A.M. so until we get back, watch out for the Amphibians.
