We went to Potowatami Zoo on Tuesday and had our picnic afterwards. We had purchased five caterpillars a few weeks ago and watched them turn into chrysalis. About a week ago, each one turned into a butterfly. It was amazing to me that all five survived and grew and were ready to go. After our meal was finished, Miss H opened the cage. One by one the butterflies hesitantly sat on the rim. And then each one suddenly found its wings and off it went. It was a beautiful scene--teachers, parents, and kids--all watching and cheering as the butterflies went into the world.
A few days later, I was thinking, "Fly, LB; fly, TM; fly, V; fly, TB; fly, C. We're ready to let you go. Take the exam, get your diploma, and go on with your lives. This is just the beginning!"
