Week 33: Eggs, Caterpillars, Butterflies, Oh My! 

Christine: As you may have guessed, we are spending a great deal of time wondering, thinking and observing, and writing about these things.  Our caterpillars are quite chubby now and we anticipate all five will be in a chrysalis by Monday.  We’ve written our observations about Day #5 on Monday and Day #8 yesterday.
