My husband and I met in 1976. Some time during that year we acquired "the frog". At this point in time, neither of us can remember who actually bought it, although I think "froggy" may have been one of the first small gifts that Michael gave me. The frog was "love at first sight" for me because he reminded me of Michael. No, my husband does not and did not resemble a frog, but at the time he had a red beard and for some reason, the reddish-orange markings on the frog
reminded me of that beard. Also, that beautific smile on "froggy's" face reminds me of my husband's smile.
...We still have "froggy". He first lived with us in Maryland and then successfully moved with us to SW Florida in 1988. He lives on the window shelf over the kitchen sink now, just as he did all those years in Takoma Park, Maryland, and I still smile whenever I see him.
What a sweet memory from your early years together! I love that the colors remind you of your husband's beard. Thank you so much for joining the storytelling challenge!
