the butterflies emerged

update to this post.

I will never tire of watching butterflies emerge from their chrysalises. I never saw this as a kid. At all. Maybe I did a worksheet where you cut out and order the stages of the life cycle. I don't even remember that. As a homeschooling mom, I really appreciate being able to fill in the many gaps of my early education. And hearing my 5yo excitedly explain to me how he saw the insect pull its body from the cocoon - sorta puts me over the moon.

Have you raised butterflies with your kids? Do you remember doing it as a kid?
