Isn’t it funny how different our personalities develop and mature as we get older? When Jimmy was a toddler, we tried many times to get him to sit in the grass, so we could take his picture. He was never very fond of sitting in the grass. If he thought he saw a bug, especially if he thought it was coming towards him, he would scream. Who would have thought all these years later, the kid who would bug out over an insect would be the very same kid who would fight to make sure you’d get him to put the bug out in nature rather than have you kill it.
He doesn’t care if it’s a creepy crawly, a buzzing bee, a groovy grasshopper or a piddling pill bug, he doesn’t want it harmed!!! The same kid who used to scream if a bug approached, now sometimes picks up a bug with his bare hands.
