Firefly's

We seem to have an abundance of firefly's this summer. Last night the kids and I once again sat outside at dusk and watched them appear. So exciting. Loved hearing their giggles and laughter when they first spotted one. I read them the story "The Very Lonely Firefly" by Eric Carle before we went out to watch the show. Love that book, love the magical "surprise" at the end of the story. I've already been asked if we can stay up to watch the firefly's again tonight. Ummmmm wondering if it's a way to get out of going to bed or perhaps it just simply was fun last night and they are eager to do it again. Do you have a lot of firefly's in your neighborhood? Have you watched them yet? I suggest you find a little person to watch the show with and enjoy the excitement.
