This morning while taking Rascal for a walk, Nathan discovered a toad in distress. This toad was stuck in a small hole in the water meter-reader. Poor little guy, how long had he been in this awkward position? Thankfully, amphibian-loving Nathan elected himself to the mission of "Operation Toad Rescue."
Nathan carefully helped Mr. Toad make his way through the hole, gave a friendly squeeze, then released him in the flower garden.
Curious Caroline watches as the toad happily hops away.

It is not at all surprising that Nathan would recognize this toad was in a tight squeeze, quite literally, and would come to his rescue. It seems his radar is always on alert for any small creature in need or otherwise. You are a real scout, Nathan, always ready to lend a hand! It seems that darling, little Caroline is anxious to follow in his footsteps.
It's good there are people like you, Nathan, willing to touch these little creatures rather than run the other way. Poor little toad -- what an unfortunate spot to get stuck. I'm glad you came to the rescue!
I am sure the frog is most grateful! He did NOT look like he was having much fun! :) What a sweet boy!
Way to go Nathan!!
Poor Mr.Toad! Thanks for rescuing him!
From Jeffrey: We have also found a frog in our backyard. We also find a lot of dead squished frogs in the road. Maybe we can frog hunting someday together!
