Oh dear. What can I say, but "Welcome to the human race!" And perhaps my favourite frog story will cheer you up a little: Once upon a time, there were two school teachers. Both were either widowed or divorced, and both were single-parent families. They fell in love. Teaching is not a well-paid profession, and all they could afford by way of a honeymoon was one night in a country hotel on a lake. And the youngest of all their children had to go with them - nothing else worked. So, the four-year-old was in bed and the newly-weds were just settling down together for the very first time when the bedroom door opened to reveal a tiny, very determined child who said "I'm not sleeping in that room - there's a big, fat frog in there. I'm going to sleep with you!" and climbed into bed between them, and stayed there all night. That's frogs for you.
Oh Coni, I am sorry about the frog visit! Hope you are frog-free today!
