Caterpillars in the Mail

For Christmas, Hannah got a butterfly garden from Gramie. Not knowing Gramie had already given us a butterfly garden Aunt Kim sent the girls a butterfly garden as a spring surprise. But it worked out great because now both girls have a butterfly garden of their very own!

I mailed away the certificates for the caterpillars just over a week ago, and everyday since then, Hannah has anxiously been going to the mailbox looking for our caterpillars to arrive. They finally came in today's mail and boy were the girls excited! Now comes the part of watching the caterpillars eat and get big and eventually making their chrysalis and then ultimately becoming Painted Lady Butterflies, we're just hoping that we don't miss all the action when we are camping the end of the month.
