Butterflies

June 16, 2015


I just love Butterflies.  Every thing Butterflies.  I have all kinds of things with Butterflies.  They are so magical I think.  They are quite miraculous if you think about it.  They start out as a little caterpillar and then through this awesome transformation, turn into a creature of flight.  My daughter had a school project, like most of us did when we were little, collect a caterpillar bring it into school and then they put them into jars and watched them transform into a chysillis and then after a long awaited few months they hatch into a beautiful butterfly.  The butterfly is quite delicate.  Flying from flower to flower collecting their pollen.  It's cool how something that once crawled and slinked on the ground now can soar high above the skies.  I was watching them in my flower gardens earlier they do not resemble their past life at all.  It's awesome how Mother Nature works.  We took our children to the Butterfly Palace in Branson, several years ago.  It's amazing just how many different species of this magistic creature there really are.  You never now when you pick up a caterpillar what kind of butterfly will emerge when it transforms.  It's kind of like the saying in Forrest Gump "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get", well that can be applied to the butterfly as well.  It's amazing to sit back and see what wonderful creatures God has created for us, sometimes its worth the time to just take a moment out of the busy hustle and bustle of life and enjoy them.
