Boys Will Be Boys!

Brenden is always very excited to spend some time at Nana and Papa's house each day, but today was extra special for him. When Brenden arrived this morning Papa had a little surprise....
Brenden is definitely all boy because he could not have been more excited about this! Papa had placed it in a jar and Brenden loved carrying it around the house. Nana also reported that he took the jar outside but put it right beside the window so he could watch him some too. When Brenden first saw him he said "Aw, he's so cute. He doesn't want to go outside because he's scared. He's so scared of the thunder Papa." He kept his pet "Grasshopper" for awhile and then released him into the front of the yard. Later that afternoon Brenden found another one on the back deck. They captured this one again, enjoyed him briefly and then let him go in the front so he could "find his brother"! :)Thank you Papa for allowing Brenden to be a boy and for helping him experience the things in life that he enjoys the most!

P.S. No animals were harmed for this blog! All of the animals were captured carefully, cared for lovingly, and released eagerly! :)
