Well I am glad they are butterflies and not moths. I am afraid I would have killed them if they were moths. Before they land in my lunch :P Oh I thought cocoons were butterflies.

I used to collect Caterpillars when I was younger.. had a big tank for them, incubated them until they cocooned and hatched as Hawks Moths! They were cool.. You're getting old baby.. $50 an hours is crazy dollars :P See you tomorrow! Night :D xxx Can’t believe you’ve never seen a cocoon or chrysalis before babe!

I would love to see the cocoons hatch!!!!! What a beautiful sight that would be. I am thinking tomorrow I will come around and we can periodically check up on the sleeping beauties. You'll be shocked to know I have never seen a cocoon before. Aren't they beautiful?? Such lovely colours...!!! You have to show me them tomorrow babes. I hope tomorrow and Monday will be nice days because I have two days off work! Isn't that exciting? I am way too expensive now to be working on Public Holidays!! Haha apparently I am not worth working when I cost $50 an hour. I'd say that I can easily sell enough bread, more than $50 worth an hour!!! :P Anyway I am looking forward to spending it with you!!! Like a weekend together!! I'm off to bed now my little drunken butterfly. Wish we could be together! :) Night night xxxx :* (in case that isn't a smiley...That's a kiss!!!)
