Hatch Day!




We are the proud owners of over 200 newly hatched praying mantises.  The kids were so excited.  Heck, we all were excited.  It's quite a show to see.  Jason actually noticed the movement in the butterfly habitat we were storing the egg sack in.  We got to see the little guys busting out one by one like mad through a tiny hole.  And even though Lucy has been very anti-bug these days she was totally into it and wanted to carry them around.  They are the coolest bugs I know.
