On my birthday, from my grandma and grandpa, I got a butterfly growing kit to hatch butterfly larvae. The butterfly home came in the box with the instructions and a little dropper to feed them. The caterpillars weren't in the box. They had to be sent in the mail. I kept waiting and waiting. It took about three weeks before they came. One day I caught a caterpillar and gave it to Justis, and that reminded me to check the mail to see if my butterflies had come. I opened the mailbox and there was a little box that said, "Open Immediately: Butterflies Inside." I hurried and opened the box and there was a container with five tiny larvae and the food they needed to eat to grow. Each larvae was so little, Mom and I were surprised. We read the instructions and put them on the shelf and watch them grow.
