The squish of mud between your toes; how would you live your life as a frog?

I think I would try to find a toad house that some little girl made one summer at a camp. I would hopefully be near a babbling brook, where I could hop between pebbles and search for grub. Being a believer in gnomes and all things magical, I think I would take up with them, joining in with their festivities. Gnomes seem like a lovely bunch, you know?
