frog arms

The big tadpole popped an arm just now...Yesterday he was so lethargic, with two bumps on his side.  Made me think of wisdom teeth trying to push their way through my gums when I was younger.  Red under the skin.  Pressure.  This morning I took this picture:
Looks stressful and painful to me.  The Metamorphosis. Then I look just a couple hours later and the left arm has popped out. What a relief for the little thing!  Check out this proud tadpole with his brand new arm!
Any time now, pow! Out will come the other. I am such a proud froggy mama.  Then the frog should start absorbing its tail...Slurp.  Fascinating.
