Butterflies

After my last post, I couldn't resist writing more about butterflies. I was talking to my mother not too long ago about this whole butterfly thing and asked her where she heard it. Boy was I surprised what she told me. SHE MADE THE WHOLE THING UP! I guess my mom just thought we needed something happy to think about when she told us.

I'm not upset or made that she made it up, it just showed me how beautiful my mother's mind truly is :) Because of her, I am always reminded that at least one person loves me for who I am. I worked at a Oakcrest LDS Girls Camp over the summer and I told a lot of the campers this story. If I ever become a counselor there, my camp name will be Flutter, in honor of my mother's loving imagination.

On a side note, I caught over 15 butterflies while I worked up there this past summer! With my bare hands. It is a beautiful thing to behold when you have one of God's tiny creations fluttering in your hands and watching it fly away...
