Frogs in the house


It seems you can't walk in the house without tripping over a kitten lately- they do not stay in the basket- Garry is ready to move the little guys and Mooshka out but I think we need to find them a safe spot first with two puppies outside, maybe in one of the sheds, we'll figure something out now that its warmer outside. Here they are trying out a bowl of milk with their mother (and big sister) this afternoon.

Of course the stranger animals we found hopping across the living room this morning were toads- small ones- one before the guys with for a walk, so they took it outside and then Jonah found the cat following another toad across the rug an hour or so later. At lunch were were telling Maxim about it- since we don't know the Russian for toad- and he doesn't know the English one- we ended up with frog...and Maxim told us that they have a saying that its going to rain when you find frogs in the house. No wonder it was raining this morning. The forecast doesn't look all that promising for dry weather-- but as Garry says it doesn't rain a lot here- so we should be happy when it comes- even if the alfalfa seed isn't in the ground yet. In July and August we'll be happy for every drop that falls.
