The past three weeks have been spent coddling caterpillars, doing grief counseling about the dead one, taping chrysalises to terrarium lids, being late for work because I needed to go buy an orange to feed the unexpected early emerging butterflies, explaining possibilities for why emerged butterfly has a crumpled wing, reassuring worriers that the red stain left behind is natural...Today we had one to joyfully release. We sang a good-bye song, chose who was to take off the lid, and while I prepared to take a photo, young not-whose-turn-it-was removed the lid. I didnt even see it fly away! (I remained professional, merely frowning at the transgressor, reminding him that it was not his turn, but I wanted to throw a tantrum). Whaaa!
