Rescuing Earthworms

S. has a new job title: Earthworm Rescue Worker. She takes this job very seriously. After every soaking rain, she wants to go out to our gutter, fish out the earthworms as they float by and dump them back in the grass. Given the opportunity, she would spend hours at this task.

No deep thoughts on this one, just amusement that my little girl is so very concerned about earthworms. She's also got a passion for roly polies and snails. My thing as a child was the toads that lived in our backyard.

That is adorable! I think it shows she has a big heart.

That is so cute! Isn't it funny how they seem to adopt a favorite creepy-crawly thing? Monkey Man adores ladybugs, probably because when we first moved in our house last year we had them EVERYWHERE.
