Did your curiosity ever get the better of you? And were you able to conquer a fear?
We've seen cicadas flying about lately. Liam and I found a live cicada on the ground.
At the park he told everyone the cicadas were going to leave their old clothes on trees. He and his little buddies searched the trees for cicada "clothes," but he found a painted rock, instead. Science and nature in your own backyard. Sometimes folks are in a big hurry and don't slow down long enough to discover the little things.
Are you trying new things? If you are a writer, are you considering a new genre or submitting to new venues? I have been stretching my wings, and waiting for a response from five publications. Waiting is the hard part. Writing is easy. Read about a hurricane at the link below.

I can remember many years ago picking up the cicada shells and marveling at them. You're helping Liam make wonderful memories.

I used to love finding those shells on the trees!
When my dad was a kid, he liked to tie a string to the leg of a cicada, and let it fly around him on its leash. In fact, his nickname his whole life, the only thing his family called him, was "June." Whether that was for "June bug," or the fact that he was a "junior," he never clarified.
Linda--Liam's scrunched up nose and grin says it all.
Such fun! Liam is so lucky to have you. You have taught him so much, and you make learning fun. Love the pictures.
What a sweet boy. And oh, my, all the knowledge he absorbs just by hanging around with you!
