Frogs and snails?



"What are little girls made of? Sugar and spice and everything nice." I have an "everything nice" granddaughter who loves "Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails," as well. Bree Anna spent her lake time scooping up tadpoles and sharing them with my friend Janet's granddaughters. When did little girls stop eeking and start seeking?
The lake didn't disappoint --- they all found ample supplies of creepy crawlies, including a disgusting crawfish her brother wanted to cook and "suck out the brains."
I thought about that great Psalm 139 that reminds us we are "fearfully and wonderfully made." He gave us imagination, curiosity, and love for the fish swimming in Holly Lake. Go for it, Bree Anna ---- there will be plenty of time for all that sugar and spice!
