In the light of the moon....


a little egg lay on a leaf. One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and....


pop! Out of the egg came a very tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

Okay, I did that from memory so forgive me if it isn't quite verbatim. But we do have monarch butterflies laying eggs in our yard and we do have teeny weeny caterpillars munching away on the milkweed. Cole was grossed out to learn that the caterpillars bust out of their skin, including their face masks, and eat it, but who wouldn't be? I don't know why critters keep reproducing in our yard, but they do.
