In case anyone is actually reading this, I wanted to post a quick note about my involvement and hope for this "experiment". I am asking Aidan to take pictures and talk/write about the caterpillars (and eventually butterflies) so that he gets the experience of daily journaling. I am trying very hard not to influence either his pictures or his words. The pictures you will see posted are pictures that Aidan is taking and picking to put on the blog and the words (though I'm having some trouble convincing him to type) are exactly (OK, maybe not EXACTLY) what he is telling me.
I'm hoping that journaling daily will help keep Aidan interested in what, to a five year old, can seem like a very slow process (overall, the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly takes an average of 3 weeks). I'm also hoping to channel his creativity into a more constructive medium than finding ways to get his younger brother in trouble.
Having never been one to journal daily, this should be an interesting challenge for both Aidan and me. I hope that you enjoy future posts.
