Slimey Stats - Day 11

Here's the scoop on our little friend Slimey...

He burrowed under the grass and was busy rounding out a little area for himself that first week. Every day more was done and he changed almost before our eyes. He was once a pretty big (probably almost 2 inches long) bright green caterpillar and now he is less than an inch long and totally brown. We can actually see wings forming under the brown shiny "skin". Unbelieveable!!!







































It's so exciting! There won't be much more to show or tell - until he starts to emerge. I need to research when that might be...

That's amazing! And what a true miracle right in front of your eyes. It's great to see some of God's awesome work right before your eyes! I'm jealous too, but I can't say I've ever tried to do this - look at what I'm missing out on!
