According to A., not only did we move to small town America 6 months ago, but she also got her degree in bugs, and animals, and dirt. She now refers to herself as an ologist. Sometimes it is a bugologist, sometimes more specific such as a ladybugologist, sometimes more broad and she is just an overall ologist. Most things I should fact check her on, but she says them with such conviction that I really feel like she may be right. For instance, did you know that Ladybugs tell their age by the number of spots on their back; ladybugs are nocturnal; lady bugs sit on your hand if they like you. Did you know that every single ladybug like's A.
On this day, A. was a bunnyologist and a frogologist. We have an egress window in our basement that until we got a large plastic cover, also doubled as a unfortunate cage for many unwanted visitors. There was a frog and a bunny trapped together. I don't know if they were more terrified being trapped or being rescued by a giant, 1 kid with a huge blue helmeted head, and one overly excited ologist. But, A. shouted out directions for Daddy to get a huge bucket, Mommy to get a carrot, and K. to hop like a bunny/ frog so they wouldn't feel so alone. Surprisingly, everyone followed their direction. I mean, you wouldn't want to go against a person with all the talent and education that it takes to have multiple ologist titles.

Could the poor thing try to camouflage itself anymore? |

Anyone want to touch the frog. |
1. Bunny's move very fast when they are scared of giants, ologists, and helmet heads
2. Frogs pee on your hands so you should let your daddy hold it.
