LadyBUGS

Ryder and I had Stroller Strides this morning and after class he got to play with ladybugs! Theres a store out in Goodyear that sells ladybugs every year for earth day. So one of the moms in our group bought some ladybugs for her daughter to play with. She brought some to class today and after class dumped them out on a blanket for all the kids to play with. I was sure that this would be a disaster. I could picture Ryder eating one or picking them up and squishing them in his hand. But surprise, surprise, Ryder was actually super gentle with the little buggies and really enjoyed playing with them :) It was pretty funny because it seemed like the little girls were the ones squishing them and the boys were being so gentle :) Ryder would stick his little finger out and watch as they crawled on his hand and up his sleeve. They were even flying and landing in his hair. I forgot my camera, but luckily I was able to snap some pics with my phone.

  2. That is so funny! Growing up there was a huge field across from our house and Stacie and I would go collect ladybugs and sell them to a local plant/gardening store. That sure brings back memories!
