Butterflies were meant to fly free!

 The butterflies made the trip down to FL with us and 2 emerged on the journey down-- they poop RED stinky diarrhea...yeah-- not fun-- but them emerging is VERY fun-- one of nature's miracles and we got to witness it firsthand-- AWESOME!!!
 Once in FL we decided to release the little nippers-- Emmy knew they were so happy.
 It was a bittersweet moment~ but Emmy got to hold them before they flew away...
This picture honestly makes me cry-- here she is after the last one flew away-- holding their little flowers that we dunked in sugar water--- hoping they'd come back for one last sip-- her eyes hold such hope-- they didn't come back-- little stinks-- but she wasn't sad-- Thanks again Booky for such an incredible memory!
