"C" is for Caterpillar




Did I mention that Faith at one time was terribly afraid of bugs. Yeah, she would scream, "run, spider" when she saw one in the bathtub. Not anymore. She loves caterpillars now. Grace taught her about the eastern tent caterpillars and we researched it some more to discover it turns into a moth. We ventured out yesterday to find one because this week is the letter "C". I told her to look carefully and find one. I was walking along and then she piped up, "mommy, caterpillar." Where peanut? "Right there." I didn't see it at all. I told her to show it to me. She bent down and pointed to one sunning on a tall blade of grass. Of course she held it and played with it. It even came to the slide to play with us. Then we decided to put it back into the tree so it would be able to eat. She has come along way with bugs. She even took turns with the neighbor boy, Anthony, to put rocks into a box for one he found. She sure loves them.
