Twice I have had the opportunity to catch a monarch butterfly in it's caterpillar stage and watch it change into its chrysalis and hatch out a butterfly. It is an awesome experience, which I highly recommend!
I always have mixed emotions when it's time to let it go. On one hand I will miss my new little friend, but on the other hand it is exciting to set it free into the world. It reminds me of a passage from The Secret Life of Bees, when the little girl opens her jar of bees and says to them "Your Jar is Open".
To take it to a human level, it's a reminder of the potential we have if we will only spread our wings and seek it out (deep right!?). I find that idea very inspirational, which is why I made a layout with this quote and a picture of my 1st butterfly being set free.
Almost everything is from the Ambrosia line by BoBunny and can be found at The Scrapbooking Studio. Such summery colors, perfect for your summer adventures.
