Catchin' Fireflies










I remember so well being a child and living for evening to arrive so I could catch lightening bugs and fill a canning jar. I would gather as many as I could and put them in my bedroom to light up my room all night long. I would be devestated in the morning when they were all dead. Well, we have a bug catcher full of lightening bugs in our house tonight. We'll see if they make it through the night! It was fun watching Braylen catch them! Oh to be a child again!!!

Yes I too remember catching fireflies as a kid. BUT we did NOT have those cute little bug catcher kits!!! We just had to use our hands and a glass jar!

You are suppose to let them go after the kids fall asleep! ;)

I love lightning bugs. We turned out all the lights in Elijah's room and then flashed a flashlight and the bugs flashed back! You have to try it, but please promise me that you will let them go before morning...
