I definitely will have her come by to see! I need to take some new photos, but here's one of her presenting to a local garden club.

One of her favorite poems:

The Caterpillar
Christina Rosetti

Brown and furry
caterpillar in a hurry
take your walk to the shady leaf or stalk

May no toad spy you
May the little birds pass by you
Spin and die
to live again a butterfly.

If your daughter is still awake




The Caterpillar


Christina Rosetti

Brown and furry
caterpillar in a hurry
take your walk to the shady leaf or stalk
May no toad spy you
May the little birds pass by you
Spin and die
to live again a butterfly.
