Hunting and fishing

Maarten caught a baby toad in the backyard. It might be the offspring of the big toad living in our cellar.
Maarten was about to hold the little guy hostage in an old glass jar. We reminded him that the toad’s mommy was probably looking for her baby and convinced him to free the poor creature immediately.
In a dignified manner and somehow provocative the released toad took all her time before it disappeared into the bushes.


Too bad that this hunting luck left Maarten when he went fishing later that morning. But I don’t think to catch a fish was the real target. To do things like that with daddy is already a big deal.
You know, manly things!


PS: Despite the heat, the school party was quite a success with a lot of games, races and a of course a lot of ice cream.
