Butterflies

The boys preschool teacher brought some caterpillars to school so we could watch them turn into butterflies.  It was really amazing to come to school everyday and see how they've grown and made there cacoons and then finally turn into beautiful butterflies.  I think some of the parents were more excited than the kids. 

This morning when we arrived 2 had turned into butterflies and these pictures were takes seconds after 2 more stretched out of there cacoons.  It was super cool to see, it was like a baby being born lol.

In a few days we will release them and let them fly free.  Did you know that once they turn into butterflies they only live for 3 weeks?  Crazy huh?!
