The 'saving frog'

 Before leaving  the USA, J gave me a small frog (he won it at Chuck E. Cheese with me).  He called it my "saving frog".  (his mom says he meant "rescue frog", but I like "saving frog" better)

 He told me:  "Now Grandma, this is your saving frog... I want you to take it to 'Kapal' with you and whenever you need help, you just call this saving frog and he will help you!"

Needless to say, I take him everywhere! 

So, without further adieu, allow "the saving frog" to take you on a brief tour of our travels and life here!

Miguel can sleep just about anywhere!
