Once upon a time there was a little girl who's name was Stormy..she was a beautiful little girl..but always felt she just would like to have one close friend..she just did not have anyone to play with all day..and would go to the pond on her farm in the East Texas piney woods..
One day Stormy saw a big fat frog sitting on a lily pad way out in the middle of this pond..she sat and watched it most of the day..he did not do much but sit there and croak..but she enjoyed to watch the frog and would come each day to see if her frog was there..
She had heard all sorts of tales of kissing a frog and wishes would be made..but would the frog ever come closer so she could get a good look at him..or if the frog would get close enough so she could catch it..
After weeks and weeks of watching her frog..she decided it needed a name..and she thought and thought..and finally came up with the name of Geroge..she did not know why exactly she chose George..but just thought the frog looked like a George
So each day there after she would go to the pond..and sitting by the edge of the water would call out to George..asking George to come and sit by her..well one day she thought she would not go see George..and when she went back the next day..low and behold there sat George on the ground where she usually sat..
"Hello George"..Stormy said..and much to her surprise the frog answered back by saying .. "hello there nice little girl"..I thought you would not come back to see me since you did not show up yesterday to sit and watch me"..well Stormy was so happy to know that the frog had seen her..and had missed her..she picked up the frog and holding him in her tiny hands..said.."Mr Frog..I have given you a name..I thought that George would be a good name for you ..do you like that name"? The frog laughed and said " well with a nice name like that you can think of me as "King George" and they both laughed and had such a nice time together..
The weeks went by quickly and Stormy was very fond of her "King George frog" and would bring all sorts of candy..and leafy vegetables for the frog to eat..and he would sit and talk with Stormy..and both became such nice friends in the weeks that went by..it was soon going to be fall and Stormy knew she could not come every day when the weather was bad..and decided she would have to break the sad news to her frog friend George..so on the day she chose to tell him he sat very quite and did not make one croak..and listened to her explain why she would not be coming back until next Spring..getting ready to go back home Stormy had tears in her eyes..knowing that her best friend would be away here at the pond for awhile and she would not be seeing George.. she picked up George and gave him a kiss on the forehead..and to her amazement there stood a nice little boy about her age..
I am so glad you gave me a kiss on my forehead..I could not tell you that a spell had been put on me years ago..but now you have set me free..and I can walk with you and play with you and we can still be the best of friends..so it just goes to show you that if you believe enough and pray very hard..that dreams do come true...
