Things I am learning

Being a caregiver for a loved one is a lonely job and you often tend to become quite isolated. Something that is very important is to appreciate the small things. At the moment I am looking after monarch butterfly caterpillars. Our weather is still very mild (and it is winter) so eggs have been laid far to late. I tend to these wee caterpillars twice a day and make sure that they are OK - I even talk to them.

Enjoy nature!
