Day Three- The Chase

Picture taken with smartphone

September 29th 2012

This morning I was out in the backyard, watering the various plants in the garden and I hear my spunky little girl turn on her "troll" tone of voice. I turned around to her running in the yard from the grapevine to the radishes demanding "You get back here butterfly, now!"

The sight of her and the butterfly playing a game of cat and mouse made me laugh out loud. It always amazes me how laughing can create such energy and a overwhelming sense of jubilation. Before she chased the butterfly out of the yard because she was trying to lurer it to come closer, I was able to get a quick pic of it as it landed on a grape leaf.

After the butterfly flew over the fence she began to cry because all she had wanted to do was make a new friend. The only way to consule her was to show her the photo and tell her the type of  butterfly it was. As it turns out it was a Dogfaced female butterfly. She thought it was funny that a butterfly was called a dog, woof woof ;)
