Some "Butterfly" Moments

It's been a while - much too long a while, in fact - since I've seen my very precious Princess Butterfly.  So I was absolutely delighted to receive several recent photos from Proud Papa Big S.  Best of all, he promises to send more soon!  Here was the Princess on St. Patrick's day, just as her Papa was getting ready to travel to Montana. 

I didn't see that she was wearing anything "green," but that may just be my old eyes!   Anyway, before he left for Montana, Princess Butterfly and her Papa spent some time together in the local park, where Princess Butterfly discovered a dandelion (fr. dent-de-lion or pissenlit).

The dandelion had blossomed some time ago.  Its flower had now become a cluster of seed spores.  (One can also notice that the Princess has been very busy tattooing herself.)

So Princess Butterfly did what just about everyone who picks a dandelion that has seed spores does.  She blew on the seed spores.

And off they scattered - eventually to produce more dandelions!  But that left the Princess only with the stem - a very bare stem.

So then it was time to do something else!  Having a good time on the swing is always an excellent "something else" to do!

At least, Princess Butterfly enjoyed it very much!
