I never fully realized the power and beauty of a butterfly until recently. When Nia and Nate see one flutter by, they gasp, squeal and giggle with excitement and then take off after it. Sometimes I worry about how captivating the beautiful creature is to them because it seems they will follow it until they run squaw into the fence or out into oncoming traffic.
Danger aside, I just love the innocence and happiness that comes along with chasing butterflies and I’ll admit there’s even been a time or two when I’ve joined in with the kids. How can I resist after they’ve shown me how much joy it can bring? I think I actually get as excited as they do now when we see a butterfly.
Thanks sweeties. I will always cherish our chases.
Are You Zhazha? 
I can almost picture them chasing the little guys around! I miss being young and innocent like that! At least being a parent gives us another shot!
