Screaming Mandy

I do not normally report embarrassing Mandy moments, however she has snapped enough pictures of me, that for once I feel I must share this story. Please do not tell her I told you.

This morning, Mandy was in the bedroom getting ready for her jumping, stretching routine, when suddenly she lets out the loudest scream I have ever heard from her. She goes flying out of the bedroom clear into the TV room. I have no idea what made her scream, but this is quite the achievement. I have tried to scare Mandy but have never been able too. Elway has tried too. While we have archived a mere startle, we have never received the much desired scream.

Well, the scream was so startling that neither Elway nor I desired to find out what made her scream. We stayed with her and fluttered around her until she calmed down. Eventually Mandy went back into the bedroom. I let her pick me up and I snuggled into her arms hoping to get a glance of whatever startled her. I could see nothing. Nothing at all!!

Now for the crazy part that really embarrasses Mandy, but I have to share or you will never know the end of the story. Sam comes home! Meow! I rolled over laughing with Elway. Whatever scared Mandy made her call Sam! Sam came in and finally Elway and I caught a glimpse of the evil thing that scared Mandy. It was…wait for it…wait for it…a frog! Meow! Meow! Meow! I do not know why this frog scared Mandy so. She has caught frogs and freed them when they get trapped by the big tub. She has caught them and freed them when they sneak in the front door. I will never know why this frog made Mandy scream, or how it got in the bathroom. Elway says it came through the water chair.

So, it was an adventure this morning. I hope that someday I can get a scream out of Mandy like that. It sure was funny! However, if Mandy ever screams like that again, I hope I know why. It was very unsettling when I did not know what was wrong.

Well, Mandy is home for a long morning, so I am off to nap before she leaves for work.
