Butterflies and Two Guys

We had five caterpillars turn to butterflies in our home this month and today we were able to release them into the world. It was a very cool thing to see (from beginning to end). God has created many many amazing things but this one is such a clear pointer that it is very hard to miss: We watched, with our own eyes, caterpillars go into cocoons and come out with new bodies.

Interlude…

Here is Lydia’s self portrait.

I did once say that I would not trade Lydia for ten boys. And I still wouldn’t. But…we did trade her in for two guys for one evening. These guys.

Second interlude…

Here is Lydia’s portrait of Van Gogh. (Note his ear!)

And back to the butterflies. Here is release day.

We plan to put up the May 1SE video soon so make sure to check back in the next few days.
