Froggy-

Pat picked Froggy out for Cami when I was about 8 months pregnant.
I swear she has slept with him every night since the day we brought her home.



He has been on every trip...

Here they are in Hawaii..


He has needed "stitches" a few times..


and he was there for her when she got her stitches..

He came to the hospital when she was diagnossed-


He was her eating buddy while on steroids..


and how could he miss the hair shaving party?





Smart Bomb Interactive (Pat's Work) has even featured Froggy in their brand new online animal game from National Geographic called Animal Jam. Cami was soooooo excited about this.








Yes, Froggy has been through EVERYTHING with Cami. He is her comfort. He has been through a lot with her, but he has definitely seen better days. The last 6 weeks she has needed Froggy more than ever. He has been dragged to and from the hospital, poked by the nurses, used as a pillow and well.. thrown across the room in a steroid rage. Cami decided that Froggy needed a Birthday, so tonight we gave him a party. And I think he deserved it. This little guy has been working hard!


Our awesome neighbors: Denis and Debbie have made a little tradition of giving Cami froggy's to collect. It was only fitting that they all join froggy on his special day.

Cam worked hard on his party, she cut out little flies for all his frog buddies to eat
and fed them chocolate covered "flies".




Man oh man she loves this raggedy old thing, and so do I!
There are times he can comfort her, when even I cant.
I am so grateful for that!


We even played pin the fly on the froggy..



Froggy is forever a part of our family.
We love you Froggy!
"HOPPY" BIRTHDAY!
