butterflies

Today we let the butterflies go after Sadie got home from school. Her friend Drew came over to watch them fly away. Some of them flew far away and others stayed right in our yard.
Sadie took them into school on Wednesday and was so excited to show them off to her friends. Afterwards they read "The Hungry Little Caterpillar."
We had such a great experience watching them grow from tiny little caterpillars to very large ones then into cacoons and butterflies.
