Sarah and her caterpillar

Sarah found a one-inch long brown worm in the sand box at school, which she believed will turn into a beautiful butterfly couple months later. She took the “caterpillar” and put it into her box. When we picked her up, she said that she wanted to take the “caterpillar” home to “raise it up and let it turn into a beautiful butterfly”. Ms. Robin and I both tried to talk her to let the “caterpillar” back home to re-union with its parents. Sarah didn’t buy this because “the caterpillar was alone” when she found it. Finally I gave up and said she could take it home but had to put it in a jar. Thanks goodness, the gentleman parked next to us knew this worm and recognized that it would become a moth rather than a beautiful butterfly. The worm was let go at last. However to make Sarah feel better, Steve and I promised that if she can find a real caterpillar that will grow up into a beautiful butterfly, she can keep the worm. Now I am crossing my figures to hope that she will never bring home a worm.

Ps. Sarah made a card and a cap for her Dad as Father’s Day gift.

Kathy rolled over smoothly for the first time. Finally on the day she is six months and 10 days old.
