Butterflies!

 2 years ago, I got Macie butterflies for her birthday.  She loved it!  Last year she asked for them, but it was too hot and the company in California couldn't mail them.  This year she asked for them again and they were actually shipping them!

 It showed that there would be a delay in shipping, so I ordered them early.  Too early.  They came a week before her birthday.  I hid them in my closet and checked on them everyday.  It was fun watching the caterpillars grow.  (And I felt a little bad that she wasn't getting to see them grow).

She did get to enjoy a few days with her caterpillars before the went in their chrysalis.  So fun to see them change into butterflies!
