Butterfly

My children were recently fascinated with a butterfly in our yard. It needed "an ambulance," my 4-year-old declared. It wouldn't fly and was barely moving.

Like a butterfly veterinarian, my 15-year-old daughter mixed up some sugar water to feed it and used a toothpick to help unfurl its curled up tongue. Then they placed it near our "butterfly bush" on the yard, which attracts lots of butterfly friends.

This is science at its best!
