Butterflies and Bubbles

Aunt Sherri and Uncle Mike and Hayden spoiled Addie for her 4th birthday.  She got LOTS of packages in the mail and she loved them so much for days she kept saying, "Mom, how did Aunt Sherri know I like all these things?"  Well one of the gifts was a butterfly garden.  We mailed in a form for the larvae to be shipped to us and then after so many days we put them in Addie's net butterfly garden.  After they all hatched into butterflies I showed Addie and she headed towards the front door.  I said Addie what are you doing??  She said, "I want them to be free."  I explained to her that if we did let them go she wouldn't get them back.  Her wise little 4 yr old response was, "I know mom, I want them to go free, they should be free."  As tears filled my eyes, I looked at Chris and he had the biggest grin on his face.  We both told her how proud we were that she wanted to release them.  


Here are a few tub time photos of the girls!!  Claire likes to chew on the barbies feet.
