Singing to the dragonfly

The weather is so nice here now. We’ve had our back door open all morning. Jackson and Lacey have been playing so nicely outside for quite some time. A few minutes ago I started hearing them singing. I didn’t pay attention to the words, and the melody was not familiar, but they make up songs about most things so this is a fairly common occurrence. Finally Jackson came in and said, “I don’t think the dragonfly likes our singing.” He was a little sad – I kinda laughed – I thought he was just pretending. Well, he went back out and started singing a little more. Then I heard him say, “Lace! Come here, come here! He came back!” I poked my head out there to see what he was talking about…there really was a dragonfly sitting on the ground close to Jackson listening to his singing! Really? Yes – I got pictures, and he let the kids get really close and watch him for a while too. This is such a good time of year!
