instant metamorphosis

earlier this week we got 10 tadpoles from drew's class ...
yes i said TEN ... anyone want a pet frog?!

ever since picking them up alex has been SO fascinated with them.

he likes to have them by him while he eats ...
he likes to feed them ...
(thankfully NOT the food he is eating)
and he likes to just sit and watch them ...



since day one, however, he has been mad about one thing ...
he's hung up on the whole metamorphosis thing and why it takes SO long!

in fact ... on the first day ... after having watched them diligently for the first TEN minutes we had them,
he got REALLY frustrated and walked away saying "THEY ARE STILL NOT FROGS!!!"

poor guy.
not sure i should even try to explain how long 4 to 6 weeks is ;)
