Plagues of Egypt on Us

Jonas is very much a trendsetter in this house.  If he gets into something, invariably EVERYONE gets into it. 
Well, he started making armies of frogs.  This was the same pattern that Mom (wasn't it you, Mom?)taught us to entertain us in church.  We would make them as small as we could, even down to papers 1/4 inch long.  I taught the older kids how to make them long before the girls came home.  I don't know what brought this on, but frogs Jonas made.  And LOTS of frogs.  He made Generals (1/2 page),
Majors (1/4 page), Captains (1/8 page) and grunts (1/16 page).
(Sorry for the poor picture.  I sent one of the kids up to take a picture and then didn't look at them until after the frogs had been put away.)



Then Anastasia got into it and they had a war (meaning set the frogs up and set more frogs up)
I finally had had enough and made them get paper out of the paper garbage to make their frogs.

Even Ryah worked hard to learn how to make frogs.
