Butterfly

When Adam was getting the caterpillars from his friend he also got a cocoon. The kids watched and watched that cocoon. Ammon even looked online and learned all about butterflies hatching so he would be prepared! He went to bed saying the cocoon would hatch soon and they next morning we woke up to a butterfly!

We woke all the kids up, took the butterfly outside and they spent about 3 hours waiting for the butterfly’s wings to dry and fly away!! Again I have 150 pictures and videos of this!! They really love it!

Beautiful Monarch Butterfly!

He didn’t like Nik’s hand, but he climbed on mine!

Michael wanted to hold him too. He was so gentle!

Right after this picture he flew onto Ammon’s shorts and then off he went!

We cannot wait for our  2 other cocoons to hatch!
