We let loose our butterflies today! The sun was shining; they felt it on their wings and took off. Kaia took one onto his hand and it spread out its wings and sat there for awhile. They flew high up into the holly tree and were gone. Kaia felt sad at first. "First you pop Yoda (Mr. Shap balloon creation), now the butterflies have to go free."
The tulips have shot out of the ground too. All of the bulbs are showing themselves. It's been raining for quite awhile now so the sun will finally dry out the yard a bit for everything to grow. The kids have started some seeds indoors: sunflowers, parley, snap peas, bee balm, cucumber, chard... We are itching to get them in the ground and see the garden take shape. (I'm also planning to - finally - build some kind of structure out there to play in!)
