This shows love beyond the norm...I think it is very beautiful and finely done. I have pet toads, four of them. Most people think that is a bit odd, perhaps it is. But I wanted to love and see the beauty in all things, especially the things we overlook and take for granted...toads actually are lovely in my eyes and very beneficial to nature and gardens. I came to realize why they have those bumps. it is natures way of camoflage protection so they look like peddles in the sand by the water...thus birds and other predators will not see them so well..they are so tender, soft and vulnerable. It makes me a bit sad that they aren't appreciated much by humans since they eat allot of the pesty bugs. I see you have taken the time to honor them with love. I am deeply touched by this work!!! God bless your wonderful spirit!! sinseerly CB
