Caterpillars

Several months ago, on my birthday, Aaron gave me a butterfly rainforest . It didn't come with the caterpillars. He had to send a check to Uncle Milton's Butterfly farm, and they would send the caterpillars.

Each day I expectantly checked my mailbox for the little guys. And each day there was no sign of them. I was starting to think it was a cruel joke. I envisioned Uncle Milton sitting on the beach in the Carribean ordering a tall cool drink with our caterpillar money.

Then yesterday, the caterpillars arrived. (they flew in from California and boy were their arms tired....that joke never grows old for me)

They are pretty grody looking right now. But soon...soon I will witness the great miracle of the transformation of a butterfly...or so the pamphlet tells me.
