#6 Catch Fireflies

Last year was the first year Lennon tried to catch fireflies.  Unfortunately for our little flying friends, getting fireflies into his bug jar unharmed proved to be very difficult for him.

So this year, I was the official jar-holder while everyone else was "hunting".  You will be relieved to know there were no casualties.

 We had a little help from Aunt K and her canine companions, Gabby and Wiley.

Lennon was very good at catching them and much better at gently placing them in the jar.  He was very excited after catching his first one. 

                                                

After it got fully dark, we took the jar out into the woods and let them go.  Some of them didn't seem to want to leave us.
