We are studying insects this summer and we started with the butterfly, we received our Painted Lady Larvae in a self feeding container, whew!
For about 7 days those tiny caterpillars ate, and ate, and ate and became big fat caterpillars, I have to admit the children's book about the very hungry caterpillar is actually true!
One by one they made their chrysalis's, hanging head down and shaped like an upside down "J" and at this point Laney could not handle them as much, we transferred the delicate chrysalises into the soon to be butterfly garden
WE have our first butterfly pet, can you see all the excitement, Ahhhh... to be a little girl and hold a delicate butterfly, such wonder and amazement at this incredible transformation
God you are the creator and sustainer of all life, thank you for the chance to watch these girls marvel and learn about you and your creation
