5 Very Hungry Caterpillars

On June 27th, a surprise package arrived for me. It was a very tiny box. When we opened it, I found 5 very tiny painted lady butterfly caterpillars. They have grown an amazing amount each day. Some time in the next week, they should make their chrysallises. Then we'll wait about another 10 days for them to come out as butterflies! This will be very exciting! I love butterflies!

(P.s. Thank you to cousin Molly for the this kit and butterfly habitat that she gave me! We saved it and just sent away for the caterpillars this month.)
