Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued,
is always just beyond your grasp,
but which, if you will sit down quietly,
may alight upon you.

One of the local malls hosted the Butterfly Festival for the Kiwanis. We joined the Gungan’s at the mall to check out the 800 square foot mesh tent which was outfitted like a conservatory, lined with flowering plants and green foliage, water fountains and butterfly feeders. The hundreds of delicate creatures enjoy the nectar in the specially selected plants inside the tent.
We were given cotton swabs soaked in Gatorade to entice butterflies to alight on the swab to get that personal experience with the butterflies. Abigail was just a little creeped out by the ‘buggy-ness’ side of the butterflies.
