NAME:

the frog and the ox

Four very cute frogs, a frog mother and three frog daughters saw an ox for the first time in their lives. The ox, alone, pulled the plow led by a farmer. The three little frogs almost died in admiration. What a big animal! What a strong man! What a pussy! What a hottie.
The frog mother, jealous, exclaimed:
– But did you find this ox so strong? What's up? Don't overdo it. At most he's an inch taller than me. I just want to…

– Want how? - Said the frogs in chorus. – You are a frog, and even, as Millôr writes, a large frog. But it will never even be an ox.
- Well - said the frog - it's just a matter of eating more and breathing more deeply.
And right there, in front of her daughters, the frog began to eat more and breathe all she could around. And she was growing up and asking:
– Am I already his size?
And the daughters, always in chorus:
- No. There is still much.
Stimulated by the negatives, the mother was eating and breathing, breathing and eating, until the daughters had to agree:
– Amazing, mother, now you are a real ox. Make mu!
And when she made one, the farmer, who was going through it again with the plow and the ox, was also enthusiastic:
– Hey, cocky bullfrog, from now on you're going to pull my plow for special services. There is a land full of hills there and I couldn't make the devil of this slack ox learn how to jump.
And from then on, the frog had to work from sunrise to sunset without letting out a peep, that is, a croak.
