Treasure in the Bamboo Forest



We should all be familiar with our Pit Bull story by now.

When we cleared the path through the yard and put up the fence, the Bamboo Forest got fenced OUT of our yard. And...the Bamboo Forest just happens to be right next to the chained, aggressive, Petey Pit Bull Dog.

We recently had a barrier put up between Petey and the Bamboo Forest, one end connects to a neighbors fence, one end connects to our fence. If Petey, or any of his Pit friends get loose, he will have to travel around several houses on a different road to make his way to our house. Hopefully, he would be delayed by something else, like a squirrel, or the tire of  a car....and never make it.

Anyway, yesterday was the first day the kiddos got to play in the Bamboo Forest.

They came bursting through my front door all smiles, presenting me with the gift of a one-eyed ceramic frog. It was for me, for Valentine's Day, they told me. I swear, my heart melted. I gave kisses and hugs and thank yous.

This is the most beautiful one-eyed frog ever, and I will display it proudly.
