Steph had a GREAT learning experience tonight!!

Tonight Stephanie and her daddy were playing outside after dinner. I had come inside to sit down and rest my back. Stephanie came back inside screaming she found a caterpillar. Following her was her daddy holding a piece of wood. On the wood was the caterpillar Stephanie had found. She was soooo excited and happy to show it off. She really wanted to keep it, but after some convincing she decided it would be cool to take it back outside so that it could become a butterfly. She was so cute watching it. As soon as they got it back outside she expected it to just turn into a butterfly LOL. Her daddy explained to her that it had to make a cocoon and then it would turn into a butterfly later. It was so neat to watch her have such a great learning experience all on her own. Just another reason why I am loving this age right now.

Now if only I would have had the camera near by...but nope...Mamma didn't get any pictures of her with her first collected animal :(
