Ants, farms & frogs


My kids got an ant farm for Christmas. I think Santa has a little bit of a sense of humor. Anything that involves live bugs inside the house must be fun, right?

I sent out my order form for the ants. Yes, they come through the mail!
I'm reading the instructions and it says to put the ants in the fridge when you get them to slow them down. Why, you ask? Well, because they bite, of course!

Ok, so now I not only have to bring bugs in the house, I have to bring in bugs that bite!!

I hope it's worth it! My kids can't wait. They keep asking me if the ants came yet.

It turns out that you not only can get ants, you can get ladybugs, butterflies & praying mantis' for crying out loud!!!! Oh, let's not forget the grow-your-own-frog kit. I must be a glutten for punishment, I actually had to look that one up!! We won't be getting that one, though, interesting as it may sound. You see, the frog can live more than 10 years!! Yeah, I can see me still taking care of a frog after my kids have moved out!!
