Butterflies in our garden....

 Did you see the box beside me?

 It has pupae and caterpillars in it. We were studying how butterflies are born.


 One by one I saw them became butterfly.

 It crawled all over me because a baby butterfly doesn't know how to fly. It needs to practice how to use its wings.

I took them to our garden and taught them how to fly.

 Now, they are happy flying from flower to flower.

 This is my yellow rose. I ask this from my mom. I told her I will take good care of it.

It is beautiful! And my butterflies like it.

  3. Zoe, how special to watch them turn into the beautiful butterflies that you have captured. Your roses are gorgeous as well. I also really like Milly and Roger, your pet bunnies. I used to have bunnies when I was your age and I loved them so much.

  27. Hi Zoe,

    I remember when I was a young girl like you are now, bringing in leaves with pupae and watch them turn to butterflies. It is so nice to watch the caterpillars turn into a beautiful butterfly. The rose is lovely, you know what Zoe? Butterflies and Roses are two of my favorite things, and your rose is beautiful. You are so fortunate to have such beauty surrounding you, and sharing it with us. Thank you, I enjoyed my visit with you today very much.
