Bugs

My little girl LOVES bugs.  The bigger the better.  Caterpillars are her favorite.  Last year at camp a counselor found one of these:

And she currently has one of these in her Bug Shack:

It is quite hilarious that my girlie girl 

loves bugs so much yet she is the picture of girlieness. The dresses, the shoes, the hair, you name it.  In fact this week, for camp she stated she wanted her ponytail to the side.  That is something the big girls do and now she is becoming one of them, UGH!  

And the other part of it that is so funny is that her older brother hates bugs.  He was stung by a wasp or hornet a few years ago and now is TERRIFIED, even of butterflies.  Quite sad actually but we have been making progress.  He collects bugs with her but does not help to collect them - no touching them at all.  Crawling bugs don't bother him mostly the flying ones.  Maybe this weekend we can get him to collect light bugs. They fly but they are cool.  We'll see.
