Froggy

I was downstairs waiting for the UPS guy and Joce calls out my name and asks "Are you down there?" I respond with "Joce. I'm in here." She comes walking in and climbs up on a chair and looks at the book shelves where their are books, action figures, and a few stuffed animals. She picks up a frog beanie baby and starts playing with him.
She sets the frog down on the chair that I am sitting in. I went to pet him and she pulls him away and says, "He doesn’t like you because you be angry at him."
"I'm angry at him?" I replied a little confused, I didn't think I was sounding angry. Then she brings him back to the chair I was sitting in and I went to pet him again and he bites me.
“He bit you because he being angry at you.”
"Now he's angry at me?" I respond even more confused as to why this little frog is angry at me. I don't know what I had done for him to be so angry.
“Don’t pet him say your sorry. Say sorry froggy” Now I have to appologise to a stuffed frog? Alright, the stuff you do for kids.
"I’m sorry froggy for acting… angry? Was I acting angry.” She sets him at the foot of my chair facing me as she walks around the room.
“He’s not looking at you, he’s looking at mamma.” She says to me as she walks back over and gives him a hug.
"Who's Mamma?"
"I'm his mamma." She says. "He like his Mamma."
"Do you give him kisses?" I ask.
"Mmm-humm." She kisses the frog. her face changes into an angry face. "I'm not going to kiss a frog! YUCK!"

She plays with the frog a little while longer and some how froggy ends up in timeout and then I guess he gets murdered by the action figures. I am watching so this all goes on in her head. She would tell me occasionally what was happening. I looked over one time and froggy was laying on his back and she says "He dead."
"Oh no! Poor froggy!"
