I’m so thankful to Keroma. She taught me everything that I know when it comes to cooking. I really idolize her. She’s the epitome of both a mother and a woman.

So patient, kind and wise yet she still has that commanding aura. It’s really amazing how one woman can handle a family of 5, plus the whole Frog Gang. I really appreciate that she allows us to hangout at the house even though we are not blood relatives. She even treats us like her own children and not just mere guests.

When I have my own family, I want to be like her and when it’s my children’s turn to have their own families, I want to pass a lot love and knowledge to them.

I love you Keroma, I really appreciate all the good things you have taught me. Thank you for all your love.

This entry is a tribute to my mother, for all the love, care, lessons and sacrifices that she gave me and my siblings. Without her, I wouldn’t be here and I wouldn’t be the kind of frog I am today.

She may be strict at times, but I know that it’s for a good reason. No matter how hard-headed I am at certain occasions, I always end up following her advice. I’m so thankful that she’s my mother. Ribbit!

She’s also the perfect cook, far better than Keroleen. With her magic touch, she makes the best food ever! Who would have thought that a simple riceball could actually give me a boost of energy. Never happened with the riceballs from other establishments, but with Mama, her food always makes me happy and energetic. Ribbit ribbit!

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!! I LOVE YOU KEROMA!

I never got to show you where I live. Hehe.

This is where I live! Donut Pond! This is the largest and bluest pond around. I live in a big house with my parents and siblings.

My dad’s hospital is located near the pond and so is my mom’s restaurant.  My friends also live within the area, that’s why we get to easily hang-out at each other’s houses and play games.

Donut Pond has a lot of open spaces. If we’re not playing video games, we also play baseball and boomerangs, we also like to go swimming and diving.

It just suddenly occurred to me when Zashiki posted about growing a mustache. I don’t have one, but my father does…

I know, I know, mustache doesn’t look good on me, but it looks fine on my father. I’m confused…how can frogs grow hair, let alone a mustache? As for Keroleen’s pigtails, it’s a decorative clip to make her look more adorable.

There’s a simile “feel as fine as frog’s hair” meaning “extremely fine” (delicate and slender). The allusion to the hairs on a frog clearly points us to the ’slender, narrow’, meaning of the phrase. Just as clearly, frogs don’t have hair, and the ironic reference to it is intended to highlight the effect.

I wonder how father grew a mustache. Hmm…maybe when I’m a parent I’ll have a mustache.
