So, back a few months ago, Zoe got a butterfly kit from my dad and his wife (Giemaw and Big Daddy). We had a wonderful time caring for them and watching them grow from caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly, then setting them free (with some separation anxiety)! We wanted to share this experience with you!
So, please refresh the page now, so that you can see our journey from the beginning!
And then, it was time to set them free:
And so, we kept the baby "BooBoo" one more day, and gave it another go:
And with tears we said our last goodbyes, then drew a few pictures of "BooBoo" for our walls. And a week later, while playing in our yard, we saw a Painted Lady butterfly flitting about the yard. With a smile brighter than the midday sun, Zoe exclaimed, "It's BooBoo; she's come back to visit us!" And because it did my heart good to do so, I agreed with her. <3
