She still loves bugs!

Selah
Although she can sometimes seem fickle when it comes to bugs, I'm convinced that Selah is still fascinated by them. Today I was out weeding in the garden beds and I found just about the biggest beetle I have ever seen. I literally heard something in the mulch and turned to find him crawling around. He was actually very pretty, decked out in an almost irredescent green. I went to get Selah and she loved it! We put him in a jar until Mckenna came home from school. Then Selah wanted to let it go because she announced that he would be happier. I'm sure she was right!

Hey Heather,
Since you live with an ambivalent bug lover, you may want to take note of whatsthatbug.com -- a site where you can send in a photo of a bug/insect/arachnid you want to identify. I was able to find that I had unwillingly been host to a house centipede (look it up on the site). You can also use the search engine, which is what I did, after killing the H.C. and shuddering to my core for a bit...
Luv,
Carmen
