Yes, it has been a long time, and no, I'm not going to try to catch up on everything from the past few years right now. I will try to capture the biggies over the next few weeks. For now, it's simply worth noting that Maddie has joined us and she's a hoot.
We recently went to see the butterflies with Aunt Sarah and Grandma-ma and while Julia did her best to keep from touching the butterflies, it's pretty hard to keep your cool when they are so close. I don't think any of the butterflies were harmed, but I'm sure a few had nightmares about sticky little hands for a while after our visit.
As always, it is amazing and fun to be surrounded by fluttering beings in the greenhouse at Meijer Gardens. What a great experience we look forward to each year.

| I just saw it! It was right down here! |

| And then it flew up over there! |
 |
| A Blue Morpho landed on Maddie's coat, which I was holding! Very cool! |

| Hello, Mr. Butterfly. Look DEEP into my eyes. |
 |
| Things are really looking up! |
