The Grasshopper
This week, while waiting for Handsome at school, Goddess squatted down and picked up what I thought would be a flower, a clover or some other priceless present. This time she came toward me with something moving.
She was amazed that it sat on her hand staring at her. I was amazed and worried that it didn't hop off onto her face or something. I took pictures with my teeth clenched, worried at any moment she would scream when it hopped. It never did. She held it for about 2 minutes while they stared at each other. Then the grasshopper turned around and hopped off her hand.

ReplyDeleteVery cute pictures but I have to agree with you--I'd have my teeth clenched in anticipation. There's nothing worse than a surprise grasshopper attack to the nose!
